I live relatively close to the amazing Strathcona Park, where [i]Odyssey Theatre[/i] holds its season. When I first discovered the theatre I was a bit confused as to why may favorite walk was being rerouted. On closer investigation I witnessed an outdoor theatre where none was before, I realized that this was "a theatre like no other! Odyssey stage productions are held outdoors in Strathcona Park during the summer season. Odyssey is a world of comedy, fantasy and myth that unleashes the imagination." [b][i]-The Eats-[/i] Grocery Edition:[/b] [b]WB&E[/b] traditionally brings a showcase of great places to dine out in Ottawa. This month we showcase the amazing places to stock your pantry.
