"First off, The Bellvue's website is not up to date. Their Happy Hours no longer exist. No more $4 pints and $4 charcuterie plates. I had to learn the hard way yesterday, when I finally made it to The Bellvue and was told there were no more Happy Hours. \n\nDespite the disappointment, I stayed. My friend and I were the only ones in the restaurant for about an hour, which was lovely. The servers were friendly and fun. We bantered, which is always enjoyable with a pint of beer. (The beers on tap are Guinness, Okanagan Spring Lager and Blanche de Chambly.)\n\nThere is a salumi and cheese menu (four salumis and four cheeses). Each kind of meat ranges from $3.50 to $4 per 60 mg. I picked the Speck and the Culatello. The meats were served on a long, wooden cheese board, with a few slices of perfectly pickled beets, baguette crisps and an assortment of roasted nuts. It was all topped off with a sprinkle of pines. It was very pretty. And man oh man, that meat was to die for. I really, really liked the Speck. If you like cured meats, you need to order this juniper-smoked, fatty meat. It was so soft in texture, it melted. \n\nThe service was great. The servers were all attentive and friendly (without being overly friendly). \n\nMy friend and I sat on the bar stools by the open windows, which was really nice. We could watch all the characters in the market go by. \n\nI would go back to this place in the late afternoon for another pint."^^ . "2011-06-11T00:00:00"^^ . "2"^^ . "4"^^ . . "0"^^ . . "1"^^ . .
