Publisher's Note Here comes summer! The warm weather is brightening tired pandemic spirits and expanding our lives beyond our homes as we get outside to play, walk, cycle, picnic, barbecue and enjoy our backyard or balcony.

While continuing to physical distance, we can still savour all that Steveston is renowned for including patio dining, shopping, and scenic surroundings.

The Steveston Farmers & Artisans Market has reopened which gives us hope that more reopenings are on the horizon. We are looking forward to Father’s Day, graduation, the first day of summer, and Canada Day. Tourism is still just open to locals and Tourism Richmond has launched the Pacific. Authentic.

been operating out of one of Steveston’s oldest buildings since 2007. His business has not suffered during COVID-19, in fact, there is a global bike boom that is making it hard for bicycle retailers to keep inventory in stock.

We are pleased to introduce you to Tila Akhavan and her brother David Akhavan, the owners of Anar Persian Grill, a new restaurant housed in Steveston’s historic courthouse. Tila’s positive and warm energy comes shining through in everything she does, and her customers simply love the flavourful Persian food prepared by David.

It looks like we will be staying close to home until government orders change. Luckily we live in one of the most beautiful locations in Canada and for this, we are extremely grateful.

Get out and explore! Enjoy the warm days, stay safe, and thank you for continuing to support Steveston's businesses.

VILLAGE BIKES:

Pedalling Through the Pandemic and Beyond Story by Sarah Gordon

Photos by Sandra Steier and submitted

The past year has seen an explosion in the popularity of cycling. Last spring there was a noticeable increase in people out walking and exploring their neighbourhoods. Soon after, likely in an attempt to keep active and also to avoid public transit, people took to their bicycles to ride along quiet streets either alone, in family units, or in organized groups.

Brett Martyniuk, the owner of Village Bikes, is well aware of this phenomenon; his bicycle sales skyrocketed. The global “bike boom” has seen such a strong surge that bicycle retailers are having a hard time keeping them in stock.

Brett mentions, “Inventory became scarce and parts started to sell out.”

8

“Bikes will be rolling in throughout the spring and summer. People can get their name on the list and secure their order with a deposit,” says Brett.

Village Bikes has been operating out of one of Steveston’s oldest buildings since 2007. The Martyniuk family has owned the Moncton Street storefront for four generations. In 1937, Brett’s great-grandfather, Peter Martyniuk, operated a barbershop in the front of the store and lived in the back of the building.

StevestonInsider.com

June - July 2021

Village Bikes is a success story, and with success comes growth.

On March 27, 2021, Village Bikes expanded and opened a second storefront on First Avenue.

The larger location is dedicated to retailing new bicycles and accessories while the Moncton Street shop focuses on rentals and repairs.

Accessories you will find at the new store include helmets, locks, lights, panniers, and baskets. Village Bikes will also offer an expanded line of cycling apparel from padded shorts to tops, jerseys, breathable rain jackets, and shoes.

Some of the bike lines carried include Giant, Liv, Kona, and Brodie, as well as select Haro Bikes.

Brett comments, “The e-bike trend started three or four years ago, and they are in demand.”

E-bikes attract people who want to be active while benefitting from a battery-powered motor.

June - July 2021

Commuters are drawn to the e-bike, which allows them to easily climb hills, avoid getting sweaty, and travel at speeds as high as 30 km an hour. Added bonuses include saving on gas and parking costs, and saying goodbye to the daily search for a parking spot.

Brett mentions hybrid bikes are also soughtafter. They are designed to endure terrain such as Steveston’s dyke trails, as well as leisure rides along city streets.

Gravel bikes are designed for a combination of conditions, and while they are good for the road, they are also excellent for off-road adventures along mountain trails and gravel paths.

Road bikes are lightweight and are designed for endurance and sport. These are the bikes you will notice when cyclists travel together in groups.

Among the selection of children’s bikes, the balance bike is a popular pick for toddlers.

It helps pave the way for their first big kid bike while eliminating the need to progress to training wheels. Brett says, “Once balance is mastered, learning to pedal is a breeze.” He speaks from experience as his two-year-old son Leo has embraced the balance bike and it looks like he will be following in his father’s footsteps as a cycling enthusiast.

Now that Brett is a father he does not have the same amount of time to devote to cycling, however, he enjoys Sunday rides with his friends and commutes two times a week to Steveston from his home in Mount Pleasant.

Brett is grateful for his team that includes shop manager Graeme Burns, sales assistant Justin Preston, along with mechanics Daniel Kelly and Connor Dimmick.

Annual tune-ups are encouraged to ensure your bike is in good working order. Flat tire? With a quick fix and a minimal charge, you will be back in the saddle again.

Between your annual tune-ups, Brett recommends having a few products at home to help keep your bike in excellent working condition. Village Bikes carries a variety of essential tools, lubricants, and cleaning products.

Steveston is a perfect place to cycle—not only is it flat, but it also offers bike trails galore from kilometres of dyke paths to the well-used Railway Avenue corridor. If you prefer riding

on the road there are bike lanes integrated into Richmond’s streets to encourage this environmentally friendly mode of commuting.

Brett loves the community that he grew up in. He believes Steveston will always have a small-town feeling. He is extremely thankful to the locals for their support which he has seen increase during the pandemic.

Brett says, “Introducing people to the sport of cycling and talking to people who have been into cycling forever” are among the greatest rewards of being an independent business owner.

June is Bike Month. If you haven’t yet jumped onto the cycling bandwagon, perhaps the warm spring weather will entice you to visit Village Bikes for a tune-up (or order a new bike!). Then pedal over to Garry Point Park for a picnic, and head off east or north on the dyke to take in the great beauty of this area – and just see where your pedal power takes you!

Did your dentist or dental hygienist take X-rays last time you went for a check-up?

X-rays are incredibly beneficial for us as dental professionals. They are a tool we use to diagnose problems. X-rays allow us to see what we can’t with the naked eye.

With X-rays we can diagnose: • Cavities, especially between teeth • Infections • Fractures • Bone loss • Tumors & more X-rays are very helpful with kids because they allow us to see if there’s a lack of space for adult teeth, missing adult teeth, or even the status of wisdom teeth.

We don’t take X-rays at every appointment, only when needed!

ANAR PERSIAN GRILL: A Culinary Adventure Awaits Story by Sarah Gordon

Photos by Sandra Steier and submitted

High on the list of things that people are missing during the COVID-19 pandemic is the opportunity to explore other parts of the world.

While it will likely be some time before we can set off on adventures, we are fortunate to have excellent restaurants in Steveston to help transport our taste buds to exotic destinations.

Tila Akhavan and her brother David Akhavan are the owners of Anar Persian Grill, a relative newcomer to the village. The restaurant is housed in Steveston’s historic courthouse, which was constructed in the 1920s.

After many walks along Third Avenue, Tila fell in love with the charming little building.

Anar 26

was

previously

located

in

central

Richmond, however, in 2019, Tila discovered the old courthouse was for lease and her dream came true to operate Anar in Steveston where she resides.

Originally from Tehran, the huge capital city of Iran, Tila found her way to laid-back Steveston after an interesting series of moves to Nova Scotia, then she recrossed the Atlantic to live in Ireland, and finally arrived in B.C. in 2014.

She and her brother have a fine-tuned partnership. Tila says, “We do everything together from A to Z.” David brings years of culinary experience from his time spent working as a chef in Germany. Tila contributes her financial expertise and also assists in the kitchen.

Grilling over an open fire is a cooking method frequently used in Persian cooking, and extensive renovations were necessary to transform the kitchen.

StevestonInsider.com

June - July 2021

All meals are made to order. Compliments are frequently heard regarding the home-cooked tastes that David skillfully prepares. Many of the dishes are grilled or slow-cooked overnight.

Tila mentions, “Lamb shanks slow cook for 10 to 12 hours which produces delicious flavours.”

Anar’s meals are beautifully presented. One of the most requested entrées is the tender lamb shank served with basmati dill rice and fava beans. Equally popular are the variety of kebabs, which individually showcase beef, chicken, fish, lamb, and veggie. The hummus appetizer is a customer favourite; it is served with Persian bread and olives.

Iranian cuisine is widely referred to as Persian cuisine.

The restaurant’s décor features Persian carpets and artwork that carries through the theme of the anar, the Persian word for pomegranate.

Pomegranates are well represented in a number of Anar’s appetizers and main dishes.

June - July 2021

Many vegetarian selections are featured on Anar’s menu.

Tila explains, “Vegetarian food makes up a large part of Iranians’ diets.”

StevestonInsider.com

Tila says, “People really like the dishes that include eggplant. Even people who don’t like eggplant change their mind when they taste it!”

The pandemic began a few months after Anar opened. The brother and sister team are extremely grateful that customers have been supporting them. One couple gave flowers to

The Tachin Morgh (a saffron rice cake with chicken breast) is a very special item that requires pre-ordering. It serves four to six people and customers will often choose this dish to celebrate a special occasion, or to try something different.

Tila’s housemade baklava earns glowing reviews. Last fall she began introducing the “slice of heaven” to customers who became devoted fans and promised to come back and bring their friends along. What makes Tila’s recipe unique is the use of rice flour in the pastry. People who follow a vegan or gluten-free diet are thrilled to be able to eat this tasty dessert. There are also a number of other options on the menu to please customers with special diets.

People have been telling Tila and David to hold on tight and they are doing everything they can to help support them. Tila says, “These are heartwarming words.”

Tila has a deep appreciation for Steveston and wants to thank Anar’s loyal customers for their unwavering support. She concludes, “I feel so happy to have the opportunity to introduce my food and culture to the community.”

In turn, we are thrilled to have a new dining option in the village. Thank you for introducing Steveston to another fascinating region of the world with no suitcase, passport, or plane ticket required to go on a tantalizing voyage!
