Tourist Visiting California Excited To Try One Of Those Vegetables He’s Heard So Much About

Great Satire Writing:
I recently saw a tourism ad for Ottawa, the capital city of Canada, which touted unique and exciting activities like getting a manicure and going out for drinks as highlights of the experience.
Did the ad mention how Parliament Hill, the only thing really unique to Ottawa, has been effectively closed for many, many years due to construction?
Which makes Gatineau, just across the river, arguably a more interesting place to visit.
There's still the Rideau canal and the museums.
The Rideau freezes over later and for less time than ever nowadays.
