Random meanderings from behind the till. Thursday, July 23, 2009. Ok, so ya, i vented a little bit in that last post. hopefully i'm allowed and hopefully i didn't upset too many people. I'll try to keep things more positive and upbeat. but fact is, sometimes this job is bloody hard and there are days when the thought crosses our minds to just stop. go get real jobs and have a paycheque again. and benefits (hm. i've never had a job with benefits. dunno if i could cope! Monday, July 20, 2009. A few of the ...

Wild Musings: March 2010

Random meanderings from behind the till. Tuesday, March 2, 2010. So here were are. the start of year 5. Who'd have thunk we'd get this far? It's exhilarating, frightening, amazing and a little bittersweet all at once. All those things said, here we are at the start of year 5. by some measures, that is the defining year for a small business. if we can make it thru this one, we might be home free! So, we're counting on our fabulous friends and customers to help us get there. We need your input, your ideas,...

Wild Musings: November 2009
http://eatatwildbistro.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Random meanderings from behind the till. Saturday, November 7, 2009. WHAT are we doing WRONG? WHAT are we doing wrong when we get a comment like this via our website survey. REALLY would like to hear local, live entertainment. Along with the food, that does more to bring the ambiance to a totally different level than anything else. We have amazing jazz artists in the area for example, who would be perfect. Tasty local food, tasty local musicians- recipe for success. ". Tell me, please. Lorna Ketler's blo...

Wild Musings: February 2009

Random meanderings from behind the till. Saturday, February 21, 2009. Who really cares about who wins. i mean, come on. does it matter one little bit in the grand scheme of things? OF COURSE IT DOES. It's the perfect, non-secular, non-commercial (in that you don't have to buy a $7 greeting card), Sunday night excuse to have a spectacular dress up affair, eat fancy-schmancy food, drink champagne, and live vicariously through the rich and famous. And we do it EVERY YEAR. We've got some lovely prizes. m...

Wild Musings: June 2009
http://eatatwildbistro.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Random meanderings from behind the till. Sunday, June 7, 2009. Ok so call us crazy but we've committed to minimum 12 hour days (which actually means 15-16 hour days when you count prep and cleanup) for at least the summer. Not sure what we were thinking except that we're finally doing what we wanted to be doing all along - serving great lunches and dinners and drinks at a great price to great people. Bar Drinks range from $5 up. which from what we can tell is about the best price in town (aside from ...

Random meanderings from behind the till. Saturday, March 14, 2009. One more step toward the vision. the liquor license application has been submitted! According to the liquor board rep i spoke with, it should be a fairly quick approval process as, strangely enough, our application was complete. why would anyone submit an incomplete application? Anyway. with the liquor license comes other changes, which are yet to be finalized and a date for which has yet to be determined. But what changes, you might ask?

Random meanderings from behind the till. Sunday, February 7, 2010. You know that old saying, that it took 24 years to become an overnight sensation? That's kind of how we're feeling. Almost 4 years now - and it still amazes me when someone comes in and says "i never knew you were here! I also know we're not the only business on the coast that goes through this phenomena. The coast is NOT that big. How is it that we don't all know about what's going on here? Do you check the ads in Good Morning Sunshine?

Wild Musings: January 2009
http://eatatwildbistro.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Random meanderings from behind the till. Sunday, January 11, 2009. Catering to your needs. Have i mentioned before that i love catering? It's definitely one of the high points of this job. keeps it interesting and fun. and to be totally honest, is pretty good for the ego. Why do i love catering? It's a little bit anal, it forces me to be more organized than usual. It's outside the daily routine, and as anyone who knows me knows. routine is NOT my thing. It pushes my boundaries for stress management.

Random meanderings from behind the till. Monday, May 18, 2009. Licensed to take it up a notch! After a long haul that began in September 2008, we have FINALLY got our liquor license! This is such an exciting step in our evolution. Anyway, the vision from day one was a bistro - bustling with great people, notorious for a wicked wine and scotch list, loved for the interesting and delicious but not expensive food, and simply a great place to be. We think we're getting there. Your support, understanding, emp...
