It was the second Saturday in August, a cold winter’s night with a lazy wind – one that doesn’t go around but right through you. I didn’t really want to go out but had said I’d go to the inaugural “SHIP sails into Port Cafes” dinner.
As soon as I walked into Skewer’d, a Greek restaurant in Bay Street, I felt much happier. It was warm, friendly, smelt delicious and everyone seemed to be relaxed and enjoying themselves. I joined our table in the back corner and the night looked up from there. There were five of us and everyone in a good mood. We shared a dip – thanks Steve, then a huge platter of meats and salad ($7 each). Unusually there was no dessert but Ben had come prepared with a really delicious lime chewing gum!
As you can see from the photo we had a great night and I was pleased I had ventured out. Now I’m happily anticipating the next dinner, at a Nepalese restaurant and hope more people can join us on the second Saturday of next month.
