Poke in White Rock

Hello,

I own a couple of poke shops in the lower mainland and was looking into potentially expanding into white rock.

My goal is to find an area that prioritizes health and people that eat raw fish.

I've always heard White Rock is full of a lot of old people.

Do you think Poke will do well on a street like Johnston Road?

Thanks 👍

WA vet clinic for dog teeth cleaning

I'm wondering if anyone has experience taking their pets to a clinic in WA for teeth cleaning or other healthcare needs. I have heard it is less that half of what BC vets are charging even with the exchange. If you have done this, please let me know which clinic and the cost. Thanks!

I’m near Ocean Park right now and there’s a ton of smoke everywhere. Does anyone know what’s on fire? I can’t find anything online.

The new tower up town

I've lived in town for a while and I can't believe they are working on it still at 830 pm. I don't remember the Bosa towers being worked on 12 hours a day. Is the noise bothering anyone else?

Parking off Marine Drive - does it go down in price?

Went on a Wednesday after Labour Day and was shocked that the price was $4.50/hour. First time this year and I don't remember it being that expensive previous years. Does it go down in price or is that it? I was hoping to make more use of the beach with my kid during off season but yikes. We parked close to Bayview Park.

There's also a huge plant/tree right next to the pier entrance and stairs down to the beach. Does anyone know what that is? I couldn't ID it.

Edit:

Didn't think that the city page would have the info lol... :

SUMMER SEASON - March to October - 7-days a week - all lot and on-street waterfront parking locations, including parkades:

20 Minutes: $1.50

Haven't been to White Rock in over 20 years. Fun times!

Walked around the promenade. Grabbed fish and chips at Moby Dick. 4 piece meal with the extra piece was fantastic. Now I know why they give an extra piece, it was for the seagulls! Was bringing the tray of food to east beach to eat and holy cow were the seagulls aggressive. A seagull actually snatched one piece of fried cod off my tray when I was looking the other way and fending off another lol. Good fun! Good laugh.

Is White Rock Christian Academy too Christian?

We are a Hindu family and I am enrolling my 8 year old into the WRCA Private School in Surrey. I am concerned that this might be an extremist christian school ( rather than neutral ) and i am terrified of the thought that they might try and brainwash my child. I seek your advise in this regard. Any additional insights/deep dives will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Overnight at South Surrey Park and Ride

I am hoping to leave my car at South Surrey Park and Ride for approx 24 hours. I noticed that if I pay for parking it only lets me part until 2am. Has anybody had any experience with this? It seems a bit silly for a parking lot to have a closing time, but I don't want to be towed.

ISO less obvious weekday adventures

Hi! I'm here with my partner house sitting for the week. Curious what's good to do during the week that isn't shopping? We are queer & child free adults, and have already been down to the beach and had a meal on the tourist strip. I've got a list of other parks we could visit, and the nude beach. We do have a car so could drive but i am overwhelmed looking at the map so looking for recs from locals. Tia!
