A Bubby Encounter
Sometimes missteps can turn into happy encounters.
Just recently, I was on my way to an evening meeting, but somehow screwed things up and ended up across town miles away from my intended destination. A familiar Pam story, but I digress.
It wasn’t all bad, I ended up in Cook St. Village, a happening neighborhood in Victoria. Knowing I would not make the meeting, I decided to chill out, enjoy a tea and poke around the neighborhood a bit.
Then I spotted it.
Bubby’s Kitchen, the name made me smile. As I stood on the outside peering into this popular restaurant wondering if I should enter, I was met with the sight of couples and small intimate groups cheerfully enjoying conversation, eats and vino. Hunger pangs got the better of me and noisily insisted that I made a move, so in I went.
Bubby’s rocked. Of course that’s totally my opinion but I think you might agree.
The smell of beautifully grilled meats, vegetables and tapas made my mouth water. I enviously eyed the menu selections and the laden down trays cautiously carried to tables by enthusiastic staff. The Mediterranean ambiance was warm and welcoming, I immediately felt at home.
I couldn’t stay that night but instead ordered a few goodies to take away for dinner. I’m glad I did.
Bubby’s, well done with the Roasted Vegetable Cannelloni and Tortellini Salad. To everyone else, if you haven’t done so yet, make a date to drop in and cozy up around a table with your fave person or a group of friends. It’s the perfect place to hang, talk, eat and be merry!
