Brunch at Clementine's downtown came highly recommended and rightfully so. You will have to go early though, or suffer a long line-up.
Weaving along the streets you will come across several gems as some architecture has been well maintained or the facades Incorporated in new buildings. Don't know where all the people are, though, as the streets are deserted and even the Starbucks is almost empty.
A visit to the WAG (Winnipeg Art Gallery) is well worth your time to experience an outstanding Inuit art collection, with a new ambitious gallery underway.
The Manitoba Legislature is a magnificent building. Greeted by two large bison, a gorgeous marble staircase leads to the legislative chambers. What an entrance!
A little detour into Union Station is warranted, as this was the test case designed by the man who built New York's Central Station. It is an impressive building.
The Canadian Museum for Human Rights should be given several visits, as it is a lot to absorb in one go. The museum itself is organized around a tightening spiral of 7 layers as you wind your way up and then finally, acsend 100 steps to the pinnacle, providing panoramic views of the city.
Dinner at Passero in the Forks Market was a real treat, after exploring the grounds and then browsing the wares of the market.
