The Boys from Landsdowne Earls

While in Penticton, I was able to get together with a couple of great guys and we had a bit of a reunion. All three of us opened the Earls in Landsdowne Mall in Richmond approximately 10 years ago.

Rob Siddon (on the left with his daughter) is now General manager of Coast Wholesale Appliances in Kelowna, and James Bryan (on the right with his daughter) is the Executive Chef at the Ramada Inn & Suites in Penticton.

We reminisced all evening long, drank some great Winter Pudding (a fantastic smooth dark beer from Earls) and got reaquainted. There was a whole team of us back then, and I would like to hear from more of the original team that opened Earls Landsdowne back in 97. If you were part of this original team, or know of someone that was, please get in touch with me at dez@chefdez.com
