Before Coming Home

Before we came home yesterday we had lunch/supper at a place recommended to us called "Il Terrazzo".  It is a very unique but fascinating out of the way eatery on Johnson Street in Old Town Victoria.  It's not far from the waterfront and unless you knew where to find it, you would miss it.  The building originally was a warehouse.  Most of the buildings along the waterfront had that purpose when first constructed.  The courtyard has been enclosed and weatherproofed.  Apparently behind this former warehouse was numerous small buildings, each of which was a home/place of business for the local prostitutes.  Every seaport seemed to have warehouses and whorehouses.

Il Terrazzo serves incredibly taste-y Italian food.  I would recommend this place to anyone asking for a unique dining experience with no regrets!
