Shawn Soole (Clive's classic lounge, Little Jumbo) is behind the rebuild, I expect good things on this one.

Matt.

 

Axe and Barrel is going to try a bit of a re-start.

Do we know who's going into the new mega-yacht marina?  That's supposed to be someone well-known.

A highly-placed industry rep tells me it's not Shawn Soole.

 

...and that Mega Yacht is Stuart Brown, ex GM of Saltspiring Island Ales

Four typefaces, eight fonts to be pedantic.

Axe & Barrell. Went once, somewhat recently, high prices, extraordinarily slow service, and sold out of most rotating taps. Pass.

I can confirm Soole is operating the bar at the newly re-opened Cafe Mexico.

Know it all.

Was just in the Hudson Market to get lunch. The Cowichan Bay Seafood shop has been closed, with a sign pointing to their new location in Oak Bay.

According to Victoria Buzz, the White Spot at Mount Newton X Road and the Pat Bay Hwy has closed and will reopen later this week as Cross Road Grill House.

The rare White Spot closure.

Seems like Duncan is either about too or very recently did reopen.
