Lame.

Stuff inside is probably worth less than half that.

Had a very good burger at the Songhees food truck across from Crappy Tire in View Royal. Bun was Bannock. Super good!

I think that’s still chef’d by Dave Roger, he was my boss when we opened the Marriott and is one hell of a cook. Who knows about this year, but he’s been running the concession at Lakehill little league for years too, Dave’s Dugout. Worth checking out if he does!

Excellent Opportunity to take over a highly profitable and easy to run franchise pizzeria. This franchise location operates only 42 hrs a week with ample room to expand the operational hours and increase sales. The fully vented kitchen is equipped with both a gas oven and an additional electric oven to handle large orders and busy weekends. The small, streamlined space is capable of producing high volumes and has the ability to continue to grow with the need for additional equipment. Excellent lease in place with gross rent of less than $2200 per month with the current term running until 2025 + options to renew. Currently run by the owners but can easily run with limited staff in place. 2 onsite parking spaces are included in the rent & additional street front parking for customers & delivery drivers making it an easy pick-up location and its central location makes delivery easy and quick. Full franchise training and super low franchise fees. NDA required for detailed information.

Saanich is our only clue here.

Any rumours on what Affinity Ciderhouse is doing with their recently renovated guest house lands? They closed the guest house biz it says. Amazing property! Looks like the freshly minted cider house is remaining in business. Ahhh to have a spare safe full of millions.....

Where is this place?

5155 Samuel Rd, Duncan

 

Stunning property. Seems odd for it to become dormant. It doesn't appear to be on the market.

Due to challenges hiring kitchen staff, the downtown Romeo's location will be closing temporarily after this Saturday's shift.  Management hopes to boost staff and re-open at some point in the coming weeks.

This location struggled even before the plague emptied nearby offices. Something tells me this closure might be more than temporary 🤔.
