Sandwiches to seafood
Scott and Deb Fraser of the Clinton area will be opening
the Kountry Kettle on April 3. The couple is looking forward
to meeting and getting to know the residents of Blyth and
the surrounding community.
Couple brings 20 years
experience to business
By Janice Becker
Twenty years of restaurant expe
rience and the enjoyment of meet
ing and greeting the people of
Blyth are just two of the qualities
being incorporated into the newest
. business in town.
Deb and Scott Fraser of Clinton
will be opening the Kountry Kettle
Restaurant on Easter Sunday.
The business is located in the for
mer Tim's Restaurant, on County
Road 25 just east of town.
Scott and Deb have worked in
the food industry for over 20 years,
Deb mainly as a waitress while
Scott has done everything, with
many of the years spent in the
kitchen.
His most recent employer was
the Stratford Olde English Parlour
where he held the position of
kitchen manager.
Deb says, "Scott became very
well known for his steaks. He made
a name for himself and the Par
lour."
The couple said they decided to
get into the restaurant business on
their own because they were tired
of the long drive to Stratford and
the 16 hour days put into someone
else's business.
When the building in Blyth
became available, they "felt it had a
lot of potential. We want to cater to
the people of the area, not just the
theatre crowd," says Deb.
In an effort to do so, the menu
will offer a wide range of choices,
from sandwiches and hotdogs to
steaks and seafood, says Scott.
"We hope to meet the needs of
those looking for either casual or
fine dining."
A buffet will also be offered on
Wednesdays and Fridays.

about the endeavor," she says.
Deb says, "Kay Hesselwood (the

proprietor of the Triple K) will be

"We are looking forward to get

No fee for
garbage — yet
By Bonnie Gropp
Despite a suggestion from Public
Works Foreman John Rinn, Blyth
councillors agreed at their meeting
March 25 to give things a chance
before imposing a fee on garbage.
With recycling beginning in the
village and Hullett Twp. in early
April, Mr. Rinn said that a sugges
tion had come from a Bluewater
Recycling employee that a charge
of $2 on garbage bags would elimi
nate any garbage coming from out
side municipalities where a fee is
already in effect.
Mr. Rinn also noted that the fee
encourages people to recycle as
that will cut back on the number of
bags used.
Reeve Lee said, however, that he
didn't believe a fee would "cause
anyone to recycle". Councillor
Mason Bailey agreed. "It causes
them to cheat."
Mr. Rinn said that Hullett Reeve
Tom Cunningham and Councillor
Tom Duizer had offered to help at
the site on the first two Saturdays
of the program to monitor how
things go.
Reeve Lee noted that if there
