"THE PLACE TO BUY APPLIANCES" al is By Rod Hilts The Blyth Village Restaurant is under new management and all indications are It wine bigger and -better than ever. - Jim Tesseris officially took over as the proprietor of the downtown business on March 24. "It happened so fast, I haven't had a chance to change anhing. I've been looking for a restaurant in Blyth for three or four years." Jim said. So far, Jim said business has been very good. Since he took over the restaurant 16 days ago, he said his clientele has increased from 10 to 40 regular 'customers. He hopes that the influx of theatre goers this summer will make business evenbetter. Jim has been involved in the restaurant business most of his life. His career as a chef began 26 years ago in Sparta, a city south of Athens, Greece. Experienced is an understatement in describing his culinary talents. Since coming to Canada in 1960, he has . cooked for restaurants in Montreal, Toronto, Brampton, Midland, Dundalk, Hanover, Collingwood, Kincardine, Clinton and Wingham. Included in his travels were two restatrants that he owned and operated in Toronto between 1962 and 1968. In explaining the transition from Greece to Canada, Jim said the language barrier was erne., f the .. biggest obstacles _to overcome. Montreal was the first place he worked and he said not knowing any English or French proved to be a lonely experience. Jim explained that he wasn't long learning some French. From Montreal, Jim went to Toronto Quilting club ready for Achievement night where he knew some friends from tus homeland. His .culinary career began to escalate. - dim said -he Ivan the first in a family of six brothers and four sisters to come to Canada and get involved to the cooking, business. Four brothers and two of his sisters now operate restaurants of their own. Jim has cooked in all of them at one time or another, since selling his restaurant in Toronto. It is ironic that . once again, Jim owns a restaurant of, his own. The Blyth Village Restaurant offers a variety of luncheon and dinner specials. Chef Jim said -cabbage rolls and homemade lasagna are some of his specialties. Jim said that working quickly and efficiently is a quality every chef should have, After watching him chop and dice celery, lettuce, cucumbers and unions, I have no doubt - of his abilities. Jim is especially proud of a record he set while working in Toronto restaurants - slicing a large Spanish onion to bits in 12 seconds fiat! "When you've. been a chef for 25 years you learn to be fast," Jim joked. The Blyth Village Restaurant is in a rebuilding stage and Jim said he will evaluate the progress the restaurant has made at the end of the summer. Until that time, he's going to take things one step at a time. He did give a hint of what to expect in thefuture._.:.._.• - , - _._ __"Next year at this time you're going to see something different," he said. His restaurant is open Tuesday through Sunday from 6:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. (spring hours). By Sheron Stadelmann Seven tables of Lost Heir were played on last Wednesday night at the Blyth Memorial Hall.
