Yesterday I had to say goodbye to a longtime restaurant owner here in Beiseker. Chimmey Wong and his family have sold the Gold Star Restaurant and he will retire to Calgary. They had their farewell luncheon yesterday at Noon.
The Gold Star has been an institution here in the village for almost twenty years. Many an evening when it was my turn to cook, Chimmey came to the rescue. I thanked them for that.
The Wong kids grew up here and went to Beiseker Community School. They have many friends in Beiseker. The whole family was at the farewell luncheon yesterday to bid Chimmey and his wife all the best in their retirement.
The Gold Star has been sold and will continue on as a restaurant, but the new owners will certainly have a big role to follow here in Beiseker!
Best wishes to the Wong family.
