International flavours shine at Globe, Sun Peaks
 
Globe Café and Tapas Bar opened it s doors in Kookaburra Lodge at Sun Peaks Resort this week, to fresh snow on the deck and a truly international flavour inside. This is Globe’s second location following its success at Big White Ski Resort, and is again inspired by the owners’  travels and love of fabulous tastes from around the world. Paul from Ireland, Jude from England and Executive Chef Ross from Canada have developed an ambience, a menu and a style which is both casually upmarket but warm and welcoming with no fuss, no rush and no rules. Whether you want to start your day with a rich smooth Italian Latte and an English Sausage Sandwich with HP, or relax after a day on the slopes with a beer or glass of BC wine and some great tasting international Tapas dishes, this new restaurant offers you something to delight your taste buds at any time of day. Originating in Spain, but influenced by their travels, Tapas Globe style is all about great fresh cooked food with flavours that wow, drinks that tantalize the taste buds and flowing conversation … all shared with friends, old and new. Truly globally inspired food, drinks and conversation.
 
The international influence continues through the fabulous black and white artwork on the walls by photographer Jesse Kalisher highlighting international locations around the world, most of which have been visited by one member of the Globe team or another! On the subject of the team, the Globe theme carries right through it with Canada, Australia, the UK, Ireland, Germany and France all represented.
 
So if you are looking for something different at Sun Peaks this season and relish the opportunity to share great  food, good wine, awesome cocktails and fun times with friends, family and even the kids, then go check out Globe at Kookaburra Lodge.

Media Release - 7 November 2008 - Wallaby Wanted... Again!

For Immediate Release
November 7th, 2008

Wallaby Wanted... Again!

KAMLOOPS, BC- Australian developer Paul Farrell has offered up a $1000 Australian
dollar reward for the safe capture and return of the infamous wallaby, Wendell, currently
wandering throughout Ottawa’s far west end.

The second wallaby escapee in Canada in only five months, Farrell is genuinely
concerned about the treatment of captive wallabies throughout the country. A similar
situation occurred at the end of June with George, a wallaby living in captivity in
Kamloops, escaped from an outdoor pen. George still has not been found.

Hailing from Sydney, Australia, Farrell currently is building Kookaburra Lodge, the
newest development at Sun Peaks Resort in Kamloops, British Columbia, where both he
and other Australian owners are worried about the missing marsupial.

Worried that the wallaby may not survive the cold temperatures found in Ottawa, Farrell
would like to see the animal returned to its natural habitat alive and well.

“Its internal compass must be completely screwed up,” says Farrell, “Unlike George who
went missing during the warm summer months, Wendell is missing in the bitter cold”

To claim the reward, contact Paul Farrell at 319-0699 and the Kamloops SPCA at 376-
7722. $1000 AUD is approximately $971 CAD.

Designed and engineered in Australia with support from local engineers, construction of
Kookaburra Lodge began in February and is the vision of the Farrell family, active
members of the Sun Peaks community.
