My family and I enjoyed the cultural dances from Kayumanggi Philippines Performing Arts.South SudanBeing a newly established country, this was my first time attending this pavilion.

ContactThe Original Pancake House a Winnipeg Landmark for over Half a CenturyIn 1958, Wally Guberman, a Winnipeg entrepreneur, opened The Original Pancake House on Pembina Highway. The restaurant rapidly became a popular favourite for family outings, business lunch meetings, student gatherings, and special occasions. Over the years, Wally and his brother Monty opened other Pancake Houses around the city, and 50+ years later, the Pembina Pancake House is still thriving (arrive early on Sundays to avoid the lines). This spot and two other locations - at the Clarion Hotel across from Polo Park, and at the Forks Market - attract people of all ages. They have also become 'must visit' stops for tourists and transplanted Winnipeggers returning for a visit.Your satisfaction is important to us- as you notice when you sit down and are offered a cup of our specially-blended coffee.
