Abigail's Hotel welcomes new
General Manager, Nick Saklas
|
After 10 years of dedication to Abigail's Hotel, current General Manager, Wes Wong, will be leaving us in September to take an articling position, in pursuit of his Chartered Accountant designation with Grant Thornton, here in Victoria.
Joining us is Nick Saklas, son of owner Ellen Cmolik, who enticed her son to join our team on March 1, 2010. Coincidentally, Nick has left a 10 year career as a Chartered Accountant with KPMG LLP in Vancouver. Nick has a Bacheor of Commerce from the University of Victoria, is a Chartered Accountant and a Chartered Business Valuator. For the last five years, Nick practiced in Corporate Finance, specializing in Mergers and Acquisitions.
Nick will be bringing with him his wife, Lisa, and their 1 year old son Alexander. Nick and Lisa met while at UVic, so neither are strangers to life on Vancouver Island. Nick is very excited and enthusiastic to be joining the Abigail's family.

Chef Victoria's Secret Cooking Tips
A jar lid or a couple of marbles in the bottom half of a double-boiler
will rattle when the water gets low and warn you to add more before
the pan scorches or burns.
And one of our favourites:
Don't throw out all that leftover wine: Freeze into ice cubes for
future use in casseroles and sauces. Flavour, flavour, enjoy! |
