May 01 (next Saturday)Averill Creek Winery will be hosting an open house from 11:00 to 4:00 at the winery. The winery has sweeping views of the Cowichan Valley and of course, delicious wine to sip. Meet owner Andy and his lovely wife Wendy, taste some award winning wine, tour the estate and of course, enjoy a bite or two of wood fired pizza. With a little help from the weather, we may have a perfect day on our hands. This event is open to the public so make sure to be there!

Cowichan Adventure
What does elegant pinot noir, A duck called Socks (OK, he was a cat) and a grey winter’s day have in common? They are all perfect ingredients for a sensational Cowichan Valley wine tasting!
This past weekend we went to visit Averill Creek Winery and Alderlea Vineyards. After fueling up with some delicious Drumroaster coffee, we headed down the road to visit two premier estate wineries right here on the island! Thanks to Andy and Roger for the information and of course, the beautiful wine. If you can’t make it up to the Cowichan Valley, feel free to pop on by and enjoy a glass of Vancouver Island terroir, new wines arriving weekly!

Nice to see that people are noticing the hard work that we are putting into our pies. It’s really fun working with a crew of committed and talented individuals. Here’s a great submission from the foodosophy web blog. Very cool.

The Archer’s visit Pizzeria Prima Strada
The Archer family visited PPS this past Tuesday night. Here’s the note they sent us along with a few pictures:
We wish to thank you for a wonderful first visit to Pizzeria Prima Strada on the evening of June 16th, yesterday. Darrel’s brother and sister in law (Chris and Carol) were visiting from Calgary and we celebrated by eating at your Pizzeria. I attach photographs as promised.

The food was delicious, the Caprese salad, the Margherita pizza and the evening’s special, followed by gelato and cappuccino. We have had so many recommendations to eat at your restaurant and this was our first opportunity. We will be back.
We told the girls before at milking this morning about their photographs on your walls and they seemed duly impressed as they chewed their cud.
Sincere best wishes,
Anthea and Darrel
