An Appetizer Dinner
Last night's dinner was as simple as it gets.
Everything on the platter was "purchased".We were in Victoria for most of the day yesterday and had a late "Dim Sum" lunch. Knowing we weren't going to want a big dinner, we stopped at a favorite little shop - Charelli's Cheese Shop and Delicatessen and bought a few things to pick at for dinner. This shop is really a food lovers gem.If you live in Victoria or anywhere on Vancouver Island for that matter, Charelli's is definitely worth a special trip. So many wonderful goodies, many of them homemade such as the tapenade.
And Butter Bean salad.
I also picked up hot Genoa Salami...
mixed marinated olives and...
the most decadent rich and creamy Gorgonzola Torta. I love this cheese. Gorgonzola layered with creamy Mascarpone.
And of course a baguette.
