Other Stores On This Tour
Amway Grand Plaza, a Curio Collection Hotel by Hilton
Marcanda Tea Room
What better way to get the tour off to a nice start than a relaxing lunch before we even cross the border.
Hidden away in a secluded corner of Ontario, on our way to Sarnia for the border crossing into Michigan is the Marcanda Tea Room & Gift Boutique. Marilyn the owner has been catering to guests with her home made meals for a long time and we have arranged for a private lunch at her establishment. After lunch you will also have plenty of time to admire her vast selection of unusual gifts and let's see if you can resist purchasing something. We warn you, resistance will be futile. LOL. |
