Let me introduce myself: I'm Janet Davis, an artist and entrepreneur living and working on the North side of Bonavista Bay, on the island of Newfoundland in Eastern Canada. There are many challenges to running a business here in my small rural hometown, and there are many wonderful benefits too. This blog is where I share some of those challenges and triumphs, and share what it's like to live in this part of the world.

The kitchen magicians at Norton’s Cove Café are starting the week out with some excitement as Amanda works her first shifts in the kitchen with Ted. She’ll be starting full time hours when the summer season hits us full on. We are thrilled to welcome Amanda aboard!
Specials this week:
Our hearty soup this week is Seafood Chowder. This is available in a cup or a bowl, for lunch, an appetizer, or supper. Shellfish is added at the last minute, so if you have a shellfish allergy, let your server know and you’ll get your chowder with cod and salmon as the only seafood ingredients.
While I was waiting for my fresh out of the oven amazing cranberry orange muffin this morning, I realized that our morning server Kim’s hair is a different colour every day. Can you guess what colour it is today? I’m sure there’s a way we can make a game out of this- a free freshly ground delicious drip coffee to the first person to answer correctly?
Have a great week!
Great big thanks to fellow blogger Victoria Wade for posting this super positive blog about my restaurant!
So happy to see this on a day with almost no customers and a feeling of dread weighing heavy on my shoulders. It’s so hard to run a business in a small town, and equally as easy to feel like I probably shouldn’t have started this in the first place. A notification came to my phone telling me about a blog post this evening and saved my day! It’ll be alright. Tomorrow is another day…
Good Morning guys! I hope you’re all waking up to love (like the Clean ‘n’ Clear [or was it Neutrogena???] commercial used to sing .. remember? .. no? .. just me? .. Allan would remember). I woke up with my loves this morning and I couldn’t be more grateful! They came out on Thursday afternoon […]
