If you can’t get to Mexico but have a craving for the food, a drive to this tiny room off Beacon Avenue in Sidney (Greater Victoria) might save you. Generous portions of hearty Mexican and Tex-Mex fare washed down with a margarita will have you forgetting your troubles, at least temporarily, and prices are cheap — think chicken or beef quesadillas served with salad for under $10. Don’t miss the San Antonio dip ($5.95), a blend of cheeses, refried beans, salsa and sour cream baked until bubbling and served with freshly made tortilla chips. Closed Mondays. Open Tuesday - Sunday, 11 a.m. - 8:30 p.m. Reservations strongly recommended.

Life of Pies

Times Colonist readers made delicious suggestions on where to find fabulous dessert pies. After the votes were counted, those made by a baker/farmer on a small island across from the mural-filled town of Chemainus proved to be the sweetest of all.

Rustic Charm abounds at the 17 Mile Pub in Sooke

Rustic charm abounds at this landmark on Sooke Road, which has served as an inn, a school and a venue for religious services before its present incarnation as a pub and restaurant.

A distinctive tiled floor in the front half of the building leads to the various rooms on the main floor. Whether you crave an evening with friends in the games room, a seat by the fire or a quieter spot overlooking the garden, this is a good place to stop for generous portions of pub grub.
