Manitoba

[Michael]

The place to dicuss local topics and to meet others in your area.

[superjane]

I think there are only 2 other Manitobans in here, so please post!

What do you like about Manitoba?

Is there anyone here who has travelled in MB?

[Oatmeal]

OK I'll post so you're not alone!

I like about Manitoba that superjane is there!!! :D

How many French speaking people are in Manitoba?

[superjane]

surprisingly, there are a lot of small french communities in Manitoba. Out of 1.1 million people, about 49,000 are fluent francophones. There are many small french towns around my home town, although I only know a bit of french.

we have lots of low german speakers as well!!

I'm in Manitoba...Winnipeg :)

Please to meet fellow veggie Winnipeg-er's (although I'm dying to get out to Toronto - my sis hails from Vancouver and we both love bigger cities. 'Winterpeg' is a tad too small for me...)

I've contacted the mod's Karl ("Sabrael")...they will boot you....AND IF YOU have used Lex's e-mail LEX will be pretty ticked...that's warning number 2....third strike you are out!

:mad:

Hey does anyone go to U of Man.? I would like to go there to get my M.A. at some point. Hearing about the campus and selection process would be great :)

[superjane]

Linzey, what the heck are you talking about in your last post?

anyway, I'm still in Winnipeg. What are you doing here? I grew up in a town of 350, so Winnipeg is pretty huge to me, but at the same time, I tend to always run into people I know.

[superjane]

am I now the only Manitoban on the boards?

[Jana]

I am new to these boards. I'm from Brandon, MB.

[superjane]

hey Jana, are you still around? I haven't posted in a long time. Nice to see more Manitobans. I lived in Brandon for 5 years.

[Jana]

Yup I am still here :hi:

Nice to meet you.

Hi Mr.Veg!

As you well know, it's springtime in the prairies (or so the calendar says) and most of us are outside enjoying the +3 weather!! :lol:

[prairie_girl]

hey guys! I'm from Saskatchewan originally, and am moving back there from the toronto area. We'll be coming through winnipeg and planning on spending the night there. I'm not sure what day though. anyone wanna give me some restaraunt/cheap motel tips?

[Cinnamon toast]

Prairie Girl - Mondragon is a vegan coffee house/book store. Great food.

Affinity is a vegetarian chinese restaurant. Its really good too.

[superjane]

It's September. Are there still some Manitobans at VB?

[Cinnamon toast]

:yes: :hi:

[superjane]

are you in Winnipeg Cinnamon?

[Cinnamon toast]

yup

[superjane]

What are your favourite restaurants to eat at here? I like East India Company and Sawatdee Thai. Have you been to Delicious Vegetarian and/or Affinity? I haven't been to either, which is crazy because I've lived here for 2 years now!

[Cinnamon toast]

I love Mondragon in the warehouse area and it is totally vegan.
Affinity is one of our favourites for a nice dinner out with friends. East India Co. has a fabulous lunch/dinner buffet. Sushi train at the Forks has lots of choices for veg*n sushi.

Hey, Manitobans! I just want to say that I recently got back from a trip to your fine province (Winnipeg and Churchill --- the polar bears were AMAZING).

[UseHerName]

Stuck in Selkrack (Selkirk), a half hour's drive from Winterpeg.

Can anyone recommend any good Vegetarian restaurants, and where I can find them?

[Angelwing]

I don't eat out a whole lot, so I can't mention any great restaurants in Winnipeg. I do remember enjoying Ichiban's vegetarian dish, though.
