Canada Travel News - Sunshine Coast, Powell River, Local Locos

Picture an unkempt, vacant 2 storey character house just off the beaten path in the heart of downtown Powell River on the Sunshine Coast.I know, if you are anything like me, images of haunted houses or run down shacks fill your head. But wait … now picture this house transformed into a licensed restaurant by a trio of artists and musicians, using recycled and donated materials and equipment. Suddenly the vision gets a little more eclectic, don’t you think? Now add a beautifully landscaped, organic garden seating area, complete with a boulder-lined creek that spills out from the foundation of a nearby building and terminates alongside the restaurant in a fish-laden pond. You have now been introduced to Local Locos, the perfect setting for a little art and a lot of scrumptious eats (everything from vegan to special maté tea). And the best part? Nothing on the regular menu is over $9.95, which leaves you and your wallet bursting at the seams! Visit www.locallocos.com for details.
