渥太華的意大利街 / Ottawa's Little Italy Corso Italia


渥太華雖然是加拿大首都,但人口密度卻遠不及多倫多丶溫哥華丶滿地可(蒙特利爾)等城市高,也沒有太多投資移民來支持本地多姿多采的多元文化。不過,或許小市鎮也有小市鎮的特別風味來吸引遊客。例如這裏的意大利街雖然只有廖廖幾個blocks,但麻雀雖少,五臓佢俱全,餐廳丶咖啡店丶雜貨鋪丶衣服店等倒有上百間,可以和離不遠的唐人街媲美!!

建築物很有情懷!

謝謝!


space,
何以見得拍了數張意大利餐廳就是對意大利菜情有獨鍾呢?
我想請教吓點樣推論出這點呢?
可唔可能係微豆對建大利建築情有獨鍾呢?

看來由渥太華 唐人街到小意大利 路程不遠。

我的確是有點喜愛意大利鄉村式建築物,但在渥太華就真是稀如鳳毛麟角。

ps: Space is just being speculative :O

Hari big brother,I heard Chinese canadians has exceeded Italian Canadians to be the 3rd ethnic group in 楓葉國,truthly the multiculturalism is special in canada also in within your social circle and your family。

另 新鮮兄:我是說意大利菜不只已經入到 Hari兄的廚房進了Hari兄的肚子。。。。。!!!

SBB:

In many parts of Greater Vancouver Region and Metro Toronto, visible minorities are now the "majority".

It's better to be inclusive rather than to divide, exclude, and separate members of the same society/country.
