August 7, 2019. Western Head, Nova Scotia. Ploughman's Lunch.

While driving on the shore road with Ruth and Anna a couple of weeks ago I spotted a little store with people sitting at tables in front. We had already had lunch at the Port Grocer in Port Medway so we did not stop. My friend Sandra told me that it was a little place called The Ploughman's Lunch. Today, with Mal at thew wheel, we stopped for lunch. I thought we had missed it because I thought I had seen it at either Vogler's Cove or Broad Cove. Just when we thought we were out of luck the little place appeared. It is charming. The place had been a grocery store in early years. The counters and cabinets and shelves belonged to the 19th century. Inside there are a few tables and chairs. Young people are running it. As we ate we listened to music being played on an old record player using vinal records. They serve just a few options for lunch which includes a ploughman's lunch. They also sell bread and sweet goods. We ate inside and noticed the traffic coming and going with people picking up lunch or bread. This was the second year they have been in business. It is a welcome addition to our little restaurants.
