Gigi’s Cafe — Restaurant in Victoria

Every time I discover a place like Gigi's Cafe, I love my adopted home Victoria even more.

This small family business is known as a local cafeteria that offers breakfast and lunch, homemade baked goods and desserts, coffee and tea. What people might not know is that this Cafe is also a place for weekly community gatherings. Throughout the year, different musicians play their music here, numerous artisans sell their unique crafts, while local writers come once a month to share their stories and poems with others.

I had to sit behind the ugly microwave but my friend graciously sat in the seat as soon as the microwave was beeping loudly behind my head way too overpriced to be selling people...
