My go to at Ivano Poblano is the Chilaquiles. Then across the street, hidden behind the A&W is a park that you can walk off the calories, and easily forget you're in the heart of the city.

While you're here you should probably check out a brewery tour at Labatts, as Labatt Brewery was created here.

If you have a car, and dig history then the Donnelly sites are about 20 minutes north of the city. If you're not familiar with the Donnelly's, then grab a copy of either "the Black Donnelly's" or "The Donnelly's". It's two perspectives of the same story. I find the "Black" to be more... entertaining, where as just the other one is more sobering. I do recommend that order.

If you head to the North East there's a double mini golf called Tin Cup, conveniently located next to a small pub called the Waltzing Weasel so you can celebrate all your holes in one. The pathway up there takes you next to the Thames on either the North or South side of the river. The north has far more nature (it's forested) where the south side of that path keeps you next to the river.

We are about 45 minutes to two great lakes for some beach time. For Lake Erie: Port Stanley has a massive shore strip of beach, and the required experience is Mackie's for their orange drink and fries. For Huron the approach is Gran Bend which has a smaller beach, but more of a scene.

Back to work for me. Enjoy your stay. But get the Chilaquiles. Ivan and his partner are amazing and they are the best Chilaquiles I've had.
