See It: Uncle Tims’ Centre

A weekend ago we ventured around town looking for Chalk paint for my DIY project that I want to do. Let me just tell you that that stuff is impossible to find but we found it luckily and discovered something even better.

Set in the outskirts of Benoni is a little village of unique shops that offer a variety of things, from vintage collectibles,  photo framing shops, books crystals and Moroccan inspired decor shops. It feels like your in another century walking in Tim’s Center, somewhat of a Victorian feel that really is so exciting to walk through.

I love finding little places like these to spend a Sunday afternoon walking around seeing new things and rediscovering history. I got so giddy that we walked into every single shop- Mike opted out of the crystal shop- the aromas tickle his nose.

The last and probably the most popular of all is the Secret Garden Restaurant.  Its directly next to the gorgeous garden of plants and herbs. Its the perfect ending of the village walk. The Milkshakes are the best!

Benoni’s best kept secret is out!
