Eating and drinking

Winnipeg boasts literally dozens of good, inexpensive
places to eat
, though many of them in truth emphasize quality over finesse. The wide variety of ethnic restaurants are the exception, ranging from deluxe establishments serving fine French and Italian delicacies, through to Ukrainian and French-Canadian restaurant-bars that cater mainly for their own communities. In the more expensive places it's possible to pay upwards of $50 per person for a full dinner, but $25 per head is a reasonable average elsewhere. Many of Winnipeg's more staid
restaurants
and
restaurant-bars
are concentrated in and around the
downtown
shopping malls, but there's a cluster of more interesting ones in
Osborne Village
and the
Exchange District
, and several other good places dotted around the edges of the centre, notably the Jewish delis and Ukrainian restaurants in the
North End
, around Selkirk Avenue. For
drinking
, many of the city's bars are cheerless places, so it's best to stick to the restaurant-bars. Other useful information
