Visitors can look forward to grilled lamb sandwiches, olive oil, coffee and cheese tastings, a special cake and live opera from local baritone, Sam Marcaccini.While you celebrate along with past employees and Oak Bay’s current mayor, Nils Jensen, be sure to give a congratulations to owners Andrew Moyer and Monica Pozzolo.
