NileGuide Expert tip:
U.S. President Barak Obama sampled a BeaverTail named in his honor on a visit to Ottawa in February 2009. BeaverTails are also a favorite snack at Winterlude, Ottawa's winter festival and are sold in stalls on the Rideau Canal Skateway and at Confederation Park.
Description:
- BeaverTails are scrumptious, deep-fried, flat pastries in the shape of, you guessed it, beaver tails. Pam and Grant Hooker opened their Byward Market flagship stall in 1980 and haven't looked back since. Made with whole-wheat flour and cooked in 100 percent soya oil, plain BeaverTails are actually a relatively healthy snack. For the more adventurous, toppings include cinnamon and sugar, grated cheese or a scrumptious maple syrup spread.
