Bruno's Kitchen & Catering

22/02/2025

Dear Bruno,

This week the Gabriola Island Chamber of Commerce held the 2024 Business Awards Ceremony and announced:

Business of the Year: Ground Up Cafe & Catering
Best New Business: Island Meat & Deli
U40 Entrepreneur: The Swap Shop

We are thrilled to be highlighting these three businesses in the coming months and so pleased that Gabriola has an amazing business community that supports their peers.

Your business was also nominated this year!
When nominations are being submitted back in January, there is an opportunity for community members to leave a comment, and give permission to share these comments afterwards. (note that there may have been additional comments shared with the Chamber, but only passing along comments with public permission).

For Bruno's Kitchen & Catering:

" The owner was so nice and the location was so amazing..."

I am taking time this weekend to share a comment or two that has left an impact on the review committee and will hopefully also be heartwarming to you, as you continue the hard work of managing your business. These comments also have value - sharing words of affirmation or positive customer feedback shows that real people have had great experiences with your business, making it more trustworthy and appealing to customers. You may wish to include these comments on your website, social media, or other outreach materials this year.

On behalf of the Gabriola Island Chamber of Commerce I want to thank you for your continued service to the Gabriola community. We know how hard you are working and care about your success. We are here to support local business.

Sincerely,

The Gabriola Chamber respectfully acknowledges that the land on which we live and work is the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation.

Sri Lankan Beef Curry
Ingredients:
For the Curry Paste:
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
2 dried red chilies
1 tablespoon chili powder
1-inch piece of cinnamon stick
4 garlic cloves, minced
1-inch piece of ginger, grated
For the Curry:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 pound (450g) beef, cubed
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 cup coconut milk
1 cup water or beef stock
2 green chilies, sliced (optional, for heat)
1 teaspoon garam masala
Salt and pepper to taste
For Garnish:
Fresh cilantro leaves
Lime wedges
Directions:
Prepare the Curry Paste:
In a dry skillet, toast coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, and dried red chilies over medium heat until aromatic. Grind into a powder using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle. Mix with turmeric, chili powder, garlic, and ginger to form a paste.
Cook the Curry:
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until golden and soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the curry paste to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Add the beef cubes and coat them in the spice mixture. Cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the beef to brown slightly.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, coconut milk, and water or beef stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-1.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened.
Stir in the garam masala, green chilies (if using), and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges. Pair with steamed rice, roti, or naan bread.
