EDITOR’S review Restaurant Review... After visiting all of the shops that participated in Fashion Night Out, posing for the Black Carpet Photographers and picking up a few discounted items that we couldn’t resist, we worked up a bit of an appetite for a light meal and a glass of wine. But where to go... We wandered up Front Street; it was a perfect evening, with music and the sounds of laughter coming from Bermudiana Road as we passed by and continued to walk. We peaked into Bouchée as we approached and it was perfect, not too busy, the lights were dim and the quaint charming atmosphere was just,what we had in mind. As we were seated a couple was leaving and waited at the front entrance until they were able to thank their server and tell her how fantastic their meal was. This was our first clue that we had made the right choice. We made ourselves comfortable and ordered each a glass of water to start. To my surprise our server came back and poured us a cold glass of water from a chilled Bordeaux style bottle which she left on the table. I never thought the presentation of tap water would ever out do a bottle of sparkling and the best part is there was no charge for this. I have had a few meals ruined by receiving tap water at local restaurants that not only tasted horrible but was served in a warm glass straight from a dishwasher. I won’t get into who does that. Next we ordered a glass each of house wine, we only planned to have one. Well, the house wine was so delicious we eventually couldn’t resist a 2nd. We had a peak at the full wine list and I had been told that the owner actually traveled to various vineyards around the world and hand picked some of the extensive selection, we were very impressed and picked out a few bottles to try the next time we have dinner at Bouchée. Our server delivered a complimentary small plate from the Chef, this is the kind of treatment that you just don’t find anymore - unless you are paying through the roof for a night out and in this case the prices were very reasonable. We ordered snails and a goat cheese salad to start. Even the table bread was fresh and served warm, we couldn’t resist but to eat it all, so naughty but so nice. We shared an appetizer and a main course after spending about 15 minutes reviewing the menu and making the difficult decision to not order one of everything. We tried the Sambucca Prawn Crustini and the Wild Mushroom Steak. Absolutely delicious. Each dish was perfect. Simple, tasteful, satisfying, we couldn’t have asked for more. Even our server was lovely and greated us with a warm smile every time she stopped by our table. When the desert menu came we had a peek but decided to save desert for our next visit to Bouchée, and judging by the smile on both of our faces as we signed off on our bill and thanked our server for a fantastic meal - we will be back.

Welcome to the City of Hamilton It is my honor, as the Mayor, to welcome you to the City of Hamilton, one of the smallest cities in the world, rich in history, culture and heritage. The original Town of Hamilton was incorporated by an Act of the Bermuda Legislature in 1793. Located in a sheltered harbour in the central and largest parish, Pembroke, it was named in honour of the then Governor, Captain Henry Hamilton. The town quickly became the capital of Bermuda when the seat of Government was transferred from St. George’s in 1815. Following the completion of the Cathedral of the Most Holy Trinity, situated some 400 yards east of the present City Hall, the status of City was conferred upon the Town of Hamilton in 1897 to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Victoria. The City of Hamilton has a resident population of about 1,100 and an estimated daytime population of approximately 13,340 (40% of Bermuda’s working population). This number increases significantly when tourists are added to the equation. In addition to the excellent cuisine that can be found in the city’s many varied restaurants, the shopping is easy and the historic sites are a must see. I can attest to the fact that Hamilton is a delightful capital to get around on foot. Measuring about a quarter square mile, the entire area can be walked in about 30 minutes however, exploring, discovering and enjoying the sites, both historic and new, can take hours, maybe even days. Anyone wishing to explore the City in depth can participate in the Walkway of History tour that was created as part of Bermuda’s 400th Anniversary, in 2009. Plaques have been installed in the sidewalk at various points along the route to identify important sites of architectural, social, cultural or historical significance in the City. This selfguided tour starts and ends on Church Street in front of the City Hall, and enables the pedestrian to learn about the history of the city and may be taken as a whole or in parts. Some of the sights to discover include: City Hall Opened in 1960, the building is of traditional Bermuda architecture with a Scandinavian influence in respect of the tower. Last year we celebrated the building’s 50th anniversary by reproducing a number of activities that took place at the opening, including inviting some of the workers who helped with the construction. City Hall’s amenities include a theatre, two galleries housing the Bermuda National Gallery and the Bermuda Society of Arts, the Mayor’s Parlour, and the administrative offices of the City of Hamilton. Victoria Park Bandstand Painstakingly dismantled, refurbished and reassembled in 2009 the Victorian Bandstand was originally shipped to Bermuda in 1888 to commemorate Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in June 1887. Wesley Square A purpose built recreational area officially opened in July 2009 to commemorate the men and women who in 1959, with bravery, tenacity and a vision for a better Bermuda staged a peaceful theatre boycott and protested for equality, freedom and the end to segregation. City Parks There are four large public parks within the City of Hamilton that are open to the general public between 8am to sunset every day. They are: Fort Hamilton, Barr’s Bay Park, Par-la-Ville Park and my favorite Victoria Park. Again, welcome to Hamilton, Bermuda at it best. For more information visit www. cityofhamilton.bm. 12

CALENDAR of events

visit the bermuda national gallery this month and check out the “RE-INTERPRETING THE EUROPEAN COLLECTION” The Gallery is open Monday - Saturday and is located at the City Hall & Arts Centre, Church Street, City of Hamilton

Re-Interpreting the European Collection In this exhibition, eight local and international artists were invited to respond to an historical artwork of choice. These artists include: James Cooper, Louisa Flannery, Charlie Godet Thomas,Titus Kaphar, Sunell Lombard, Lynn Morrell, Alan C. Smith, and Sharon Wilson. By reinterpreting the artwork in the contemporary moment, these artists provide another layer of meaning to the original pieces; they bring their own histories and perspectives to historical artworks that may well be far removed from their pasts. These new artworks shape a new context for dialogue, using symbols and technology, for example, to comment on today’s society. The exhibition also features a film created by local artist Milton Repose, which itself interprets the process of the exhibition, thus adding an additional layer of meaning. Gallery Hours: Monday - Friday 10:00am - 4:00pm, Saturdays 10:00am - 2:00pm Admission: FREE Info: Tel 441 295 9428 or Website www.bng.bm

art matters

Sheilagh Head at her Gallery “The Windjammer 2” located in the Fairmont Hamilton Princess Hotel. Exhibition Opens to the public November 11th *Why I Paint* featured below....

Sheilagh Head Exhibition by Charles Zuill

Sheilagh Head is one of Bermuda’s most popular painters and for good reason. Her colourful impressionist paintings of the Bermuda scene are produced with considerable energy, giving them a sense of liveliness. She obviously loves the Bermuda landscape, for it shows in her many paintings and this is what gives her art such enormous appeal. It was not always this way, however. My first memory of Mrs. Head goes back to the mid 1980, to when she was studying painting under Diana Amos at Bermuda College and as I recall, Sheilagh’s colour palette was then very English, in that she tended to mute her colours. It was during this time, however, that her palette began to change and become what it is today. Before moving to Bermuda, Sheilagh Head already had a substantial art background, having studied art at The Accademia di Bella Arti in Perugia, Italy and at the Manchester College of Art. In addition to being a frequent exhibiter at various galleries in Bermuda, Sheilagh Head has also exhibited at a number of overseas galleries, most notably, the Mall Gallery in London and the Copley Society in Boston. In addition to her being a artist, however, Mrs. head has been actively involved in a number of local art organizations. She served for a number of years on the governing body of the Bermuda Society of Arts and also, was a member on the steering committee that eventually established the Bermuda National Gallery. After the Bermuda National Gallery opened to the public, she served as a BNG trustee. In the last twenty five years, the Bermuda art scene has flourished and Sheilagh Head has been of central importance in this renaissance. Despite these positive developments, however, the high cost of living in Bermuda has made it difficult to impossible for art dealer and their galleries to survive. This is where Sheilagh and her many contacts come in. Seeing a need for a gallery, she was instrumental in 2009, in opening the Windjammer II Gallery in the Fairmont Hamilton Princess Hotel. This became possible, largely through the help, far-sightedness and generosity of Jon Crellin, former general manager of the Fairmont Hamilton Princess. who saw the importance of having a quality gallery on the hotel premises. From November 10th, The Windjammer II Gallery will be hosting a solo exhibition of Sheilagh Head’s recent paintings. The exhibition continues through December 1, 2011. Sheilagh Head - Why I Paint To see the wonder and beauty that is always there. The act of mixing paint, making choices & moving colors, makes for an intensification of life at that moment. For that reason I love to paint the same scenes, trying to see them differently and with a fresh eye. I like to think of my painting as evoking a moment. I want to do more than just capture a scene; I want to involve the viewer in what I have painted and in my personal response to what is before me. Subject matter is not as important as the artist’s response to it. We all lead busy lives,my painting forces me to stop and really think about what I am seeing. I take pleasure in the small things. The way the light hits a chimney or a cloud casts a shadow. I love the sea and to live on an island surrounded by water is an incredible privilege. Even to be caught in rush hour on Harbour Road is a pleasure ! The foundation of all my paintings is abstraction and I feel that that is the basis for all good landscape painting. The brush strokes merely record my personal response to what is before me. My paintings are the culmination of my experience and my continuing desire to bring truth to my work .

of the month

Titus Kaphar Sifting through my inbox early one morning I suddenly stopped at “Artist Attacks Painting at BNG.” Immediately I opened the email and scrolled through images of an unknown man cutting into a painting with a knife. Panic set in and I wondered how this hadn’t made the news yet. When I realized this was a performance, I was horrified that I missed out on the opportunity to witness this with my own eyes. Suddenly, visiting the Bermuda National Gallery was a priority, and when I arrived I realized that this wasn’t the only piece of work I almost missed out on. Visiting our local galleries is a rewarding experience that you just won’t understand until you make the time to find yourself there! Meet Titus, a Contemporary Artist who reconstructs history by painting versions of pieces from the canon of art and then alters them in some way- cutting out figures, wrapping them in shrouds, covering their faces in tar. In so doing he draws out issues of race and class often hidden from the face of the canvas. WHEN DID YOU FIRST START DECONSTRUCTING YOUR PAINTINGS? It happened accidently. I was making a portrait of a man and a woman but I sensed something wasn’t right. I decided the painting was a failure and started to cover over the man’s face with white paint, thinking I would start over, and erase what I had done. I specifically started with the man’s face – that was my way of committing to go through with it. Then something happened. I stepped back to look at the painting and realized I had painted an image of a beautiful couple but it felt like she didn’t belong to him, and he didn’t belong to her; they didn’t belong to each other. I knew she didn’t want to be with this man, and the only way to give voice to that desire was to leave his face painted over. I realized that through the erasure of his face I felt I had come to a more accurate depiction of their relationship. Soon after I finished that painting I found myself in a similar situation. I painted a portrait of a man standing next to his seated wife based on a painting at the British Art Museum at Yale. I had come to the end of my painting session and was cleaning my palette with a razor blade when I sensed the woman saying, “This is not how I want to be remembered. This man was not faithful to me.” Without thinking about it I picked up the razor and cut the woman out of the painting, and placed her on a side table. I went home and said to my wife, “I don’t know what I have done.” The following morning I went back and looked at the painting, and understood – that the intervention was a way of visually articulating the condition of their relationship. I stitched her to the opposite side of the canvas so that they were looking in different directions. The figures who are the most voiceless in history, who would never have been heard, are the ones I listen for when I paint. Those are the stories I am interested in telling. I ask the paintings questions and wait for them to answer. Sometimes they do, and sometimes they don’t.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO USE TAR AS A MEDIUM? It’s easy to become enamored with the material itself but the piece is more about a method of torture than tar itself. I was thinking about martyrs, and the way people’s lives are taken for their beliefs. I decided I didn’t want to make a painting about torture; I wanted to torture the painting. Most of what we do as painters is illusion – the still life isn’t real. We create the illusion of space, depth, weight and form. I wanted to step out of the realm of illusion and do something physical to what I had created so carefully. I HAVE CHOSEN TWO PAINTINGS OF YOURS THAT I FIND PARTICULARLY MOVING. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME A LITTLE ABOUT EACH ONE? In Conversation Between Paintings #1. Descending From a Cross to be Nourished at the Breast of our Mother (2006-7). I’ve spent a lot of time at the MET and other museums and eventually started thinking about paintings that sat beside each other for generations and wondered what would happen if the paintings interacted. I wandered around and stared at the paintings until I began to hear dialog. With these particular paintings I sensed that if he could speak, after so many years of standing beside her, he would probably throw himself at her, and be dying to know her – something that wouldn’t have happened in their historical time period.

Continued on Pg 32

32 ARTIST OF THE MONTH CONTINUED: TITUS KAPHAR “Bind up thy wounds and press on”, 2008, Oil on canvas This piece was actually born out of the fact that so often people expect us to get up and move on after something horrible has happened, when it’s not always that easy, and it can even be traumatizing to tell someone in that situation that they can. I READ ON YOUR WEBSITE tituskaphar.com about A SERIES OF PAINTINGS THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON CALLED ‘DISTINCTIVE RESONANCE’. WHAT IS THE MEANING BEHIND THIS SERIES AND WHEN WILL IT BE EXHIBITED. Distinctive Resonance is a study of individuals whose lives I want to remember. Men and women, past and present, whose time in this world was sacrificial and heroic, lives so given to peace and justice that culture and society are transformed. I am not speaking of celebrity. Some of these individuals have died in obscurity, only to be celebrated long after their deaths. The remembrance that I’m interested in may have eventually led to a kind of fame, but for Distinctive Resonance I want to focus on lives in which the work preceded the fame. My hope is that in listening to the voices of these individuals, and learning from their actions, I might be transformed by their memory. The pieces will be exhibited as a whole when finished. When Aung San Suu Kyi, the democratically elected Prime Minister of Burma, was released, I felt it was important to exhibit her portrait, entitled “The Wing that Breaks from Her Wound.” To date, the is the only person featured in this series that is still alive, whose story is still unfolding. I UNDERSTAND YOU VISITED BERMUDA TO SPEAK AT THE BNG AND TAKE PART IN THE EXHIBITION. WHAT WAS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE PART OF THE TRIP? While I was in Bermuda I was staying at a really nice hotel and I was enjoying myself. But by the second day I started to wonder if I had seen all of Bermuda – if there was something beyond the tropical paradise tourists come to see. I was talking about this with Gary Phillips, who is on the board of the Bermuda National Gallery, and he asked me if I had been to “Back of Town.” I had not. Gary took me there, where he was from, and it reminded me a lot of where I had grown up. Milton Repose, another artist in the show, told me about a great art space called Chewstick, and introduced me to Gavin Smith, who helped me learn more about the poetry readings, shows, and musicians working in that part of town. I was very impressed with the work being done there.

Alfred James Mills, better known as Weatherbird, spent a lifetime as one of Bermuda’s bestknown street characters. With a band of dogs continually following him around, he was endeared to many for his kindness to animals. His honesty was above reproach; small loans made to him by a few kind friends, were always returned. He made his first appearance in Magistrates Court when he was 11 and ran up a total of 147 convictions for minor incidents. When the magistrate, the Wor. Leonard Minty retired from the Bench, Weatherbird happened to be in court again and gave the magistrate a bottle of black rum, wishing him well in his retirment!

HeritagE MATTERS by Dr. Edward Harris

The Gentle Art of Lieutenant Savage Bermuda was possibly the first country in the Americas to be completely divided up for what we now call “development”. When the Virginia Company settled the island in 1612, the land was seen as the main asset of the shareholders. In order to allocate ‘shares’ to its investors, the land had to be carved up on paper. The first detailed surveys of the island were the work of Richard Norwood, a mathematical genius of his day. In 1616, the Bermuda Company, successor to the Virginia Company, engaged him to survey the whole island, so as to divide it into 50acre plots for its shareholders. That survey became worldfamous through the printed maps of John Speed and Dutch mapmakers, such as Bleau and Hondius, in the 1620s and 1630s. Norwood’s map became a bible for Bermuda real estate and many of his survey lines, first traced in 1616, are still defining boundaries on the island. By the late 1800s, the amount of development of the original 50-acre shares called for a new survey and the task was entrusted to the Ordnance Survey, a division of the British military establishment. The recording of land divisions is to be found in the gentle art of the surveyor, moving slowly through the countryside with measuring and drawing instruments. For the survey of Bermuda carried out in the late 1890s, that peaceful task fell to a Lieutenant Savage of the Royal Engineers, the latter being A surveyor of the 1960s, using a considered “purveyors of technology to the empire”. theodolite near Castle Island. New technology was at hand in the ‘Ramsden Theodolite’, which became the surveyor’s major instrument, until it was rendered obsolete by the invention of the digital ‘total station’ some years ago. Lieutenant Savage brought two theodolites to Bermuda for his survey in 1897, one being capable of making astronomical observations. Arthur Johnson Savage was only 23 years old when he arrived at Bermuda to carry out that first Ordnance Survey of the island. His survey became the foundation for land tenure at Bermuda for the next sixty years. It was only replaced when the development of aerial photography revolutionized the mapping of landscapes in the late 1950s.

Warwick and Southampton Parish marker at Chaplin’s Bay. The Savage map was published in six sheets in 1901 and also appeared in a folded pocket edition, of which only a few copies survive. Markers of dark grey granite defined the parish boundaries and a number of these little monuments are still to be found. In the case of one on Cobbs Hill, it has been incorporated into a private garden wall, a higher position than it probably was originally. Another one at Chaplin’s Bay was uncovered in a recent hurricane, dividing that beach between Warwick and Southampton Parishes. These boundary stones are small reminders of a significant event in the history of Bermuda, namely its first comprehensive land survey of 1897-1900. At the same time like any historic monument, they are markers that help us to define ourselves as people. For example, they inform me, living in Sandys Parish or ‘God’s Country’, just where its boundary begins for those unfortunates who live to the east in the ‘lower parishes’ of Bermuda, ‘lower’ being downwind in sailing parlance, as the prevailing wind here blows from the west.

DO YOU KNOW… by Horst Augustinovic

A reproduction of Bermuda’s first newspaper The Bermuda Gazette of January 17, 1784.

… About Bermuda’s First Newspaper? In 1771 Bermuda’s House of Assembly resolved unanimously to “give all possible Encouragement to any capable Person who may come to these Islands and establish a proper Press”. Isaiah Thomas, one of America’s most prominent printers, had married Mary Dill, daughter of Joseph Dill of Bermuda. In 1772, when American politics were very difficult, especially to a newspaper editor, Isaiah Thomas considered relocating from Boston to Bermuda. He wrote to his father-in-law: “Sir, After so long a silence which has been entirely owing to the want of an opportunity, I beg leave to address you on the subject of a Printing office being established in the Island of Bermuda, previous to this I would inform your Honor, that I received your very kind Letter about 18 months ago, which I did myself the Honor of answering by one Capt. Cooper of your Island, but his Vessel and cargo being entirely lost the Letters perished

41 with them. I carry on the printing Business in this metropolis, and have no reason to complain of my success; but there are some circumstances which would make me willing to quit my engagement here, if I could be encouraged in Bermuda…” Unfortunately nothing became of this proposal and Isaiah Thomas continued publishing the Massachusetts Spy and built up the most important printing and publishing business of his time in America. In 1781, Henry Tucker “observed to the House that certain individuals sensible to the great advantages that would be derived to the public from the establishment of a press within these Islands, had resolved by subscription within themselves to furnish the Sum necessary thereto…” Two years later, on March 18,1783, it was ‘Resolved that in the Supply Bill now before the House Certificates for a sum not exceeding Four hundred and fifty pounds Currency be issued from the Public treasury to certain Trustees to be by them apply’d by loan or otherwise to effect the Establishment of a Press within these Islands as speedily as may be, they becoming accountable to the Legislature therefor”. After Bermuda’s Legislature voted the sum of £450 to set up a printing press in Bermuda, Joseph Stockdale was brought out from England to print the laws made by the Legislature, as well as the proceedings of the House of Assembly. These accounts became Bermuda’s first newspaper. This note of thanks to the Gentlemen of Bermuda was included in the first issue: “The printer begs leave to return his hearty and unfeigned Thanks to the Gentlemen of Bermuda, for the very flattering encouragement he has received since his arrival amongst them: His poor endeavours shall be exerted to merit their future esteem; and he flatters himself he shall contribute a little to keep up a spirit of harmony and innocent entertainment, industriously avoiding even a hint, by which any worthy individual may, in the least, be prejudiced”. Joseph Stockdale died in 1803. His daughters Frances, Pricilla and Sarah continued to print and publish The Bermuda Gazette until 1816 when it was continued by Charles Rollin Beach who had married Sarah. Publication seized in 1824.

In 1984, on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Joseph Stockdale’s arrival in Bermuda, the Bermuda Post Office issued these commemorative stamps – Joseph Stockdale in front of his print shop in St. George’s and the printing press on which he printed The Bermuda Gazette.

BUSINESS

of the month

THE IRISH LINEN SHOP In the beginning...

In 1949 two sisters from Somerset, bored with their long genteel days, decided that it was time for an adventure. Armine and Frances Gosling set sail for Ireland with the express purpose of buying beautiful double damask linens and fine Irish lace. They filled their steam ship trunks with their wonderful finds and returned home to Bermuda. Unwittingly, a business was born. They called it The Irish Linen Shop, since at the time that was all they sold. Not content to sit at home selling their treasures from Ireland, they set sail again to the rest of the world, each time bringing back beautiful textiles and gifts for their shop. In the early 1960’s, Armine’s daughter, Jane with her husband, Jim Pocock (pictured on the table) took over the shop and brought the business to Hamilton. Jane and Jim were a sensational pair (Noel Coward had introduced them)who brought their own brand of style and elegance to The Irish Linen Shop. Today, the tradition of fine living continues with home décor products from all over the world…

Pick The Right Partner Approximately 15 years ago I crossed paths with someone who would change my life. He seemed to be a bit stand-offish at first, but we quickly grew to become great friends. I didn’t know much about his background, although I could tell that he had senses more refined than mine. Whenever or wherever we traveled he seemed to be more aware of the surroundings and those near us than I was. One day I decided to ask if he would like to join me in a round of golf. He had never been to a course before and I was sure that he didn’t know much about the game. He seemed to be excited about the idea and the next morning we loaded the car and headed to the course. I explained the situation to the golf professional, noting that he hadn’t been on a course before, but I was certain he would enjoy the experience. My partner loved to ride in the golf cart. He quickly adapted to the rocking motion as we traveled down the fairways and I could tell that the manicured grass was to his liking. Like most of us, he spent more time in the woods than on the fairways. He never complained when I hit a bump, never criticized my shots, was open to sharing a pack of crackers at the turn and was more than willing to get my balls out of the cup when I holed a putt. Through the years I found him to be the perfect partner. Always on time, a great attitude, a look on his face that let me know he enjoyed my company and sharing the experience. We traveled to courses around the United States and to him; each was special in its own way. In the most recent years, he started to be more comfortable remaining in the cart. He very seldom walked onto the green and sometimes would take a short nap while I made my way around the course. You see my partner never hit a shot, didn’t own a set of clubs, a sleeve of balls or a golf glove. He didn’t own a single pair of golf shoes. In fact, he didn’t wear shoes at all. My partner wasn’t like any other person on the course. He had four legs instead of two. My partner was a dog named Beau. A snow white Bichon Frise with big black eyes and nose. That dog loved me and I loved him. We had such a great time together, he was the best! I say was, because I lost Beau this past week as age caught up with my friend. I will miss him! Here’s to you Beau, fairways, greens and yes, a few trees! I hope to see you again someday partner, I know you’ll be waiting for me!

Telephone 441 238-4842 THE ROYAL NAVAL DOCKYARD Ireland Island, Sandys Work began on this massive complex in 1809, not long after the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars and just before the War of 1812. Envisioned as a strategic British military outpost that would make Bermuda the “Gibraltar of the West,” the Royal Naval Dockyard was built by slave and convict labour. The Dockyard locked its gates in 1951. Since then, the seventy-five acre site has been painstakingly renovated to accommodate museums, a movie theatre, restaurants, The Arts Centre and the Bermuda Craft Market. NATIONAL MUSEUM OF BERMUDA Ireland Island, Sandys Located in the Keep of the Royal Naval Dockyard, this museum has become one of the island’s most frequently visited destinations since being opened by HM Queen Elizabeth II in 1975. Its popularity has increased even more with the recent restoration and opening of Commissioner’s House. Elsewhere on the complex, exhibits chronicle both Bermuda’s association with the Royal Navy and its own interesting maritime history. In addition to a collection of Bermuda-made boats, there are relics from the Sea Venture, maps, the famous Tucker Treasure—collected from the sixteenth-century Spanish galleon the San Pedro—and many more artifacts. Open Monday to Saturday 9:30am-4:00pm (last admission 4pm). Adults $10, seniors $8, children under 13 FREE. For further information telephone 441 234-1333.

Largely constructed between 1823 and 1828, this commanding Georgian ‘house’ epitomizes British imperial style, power and engineering wherewithal during the nineteenth century. An experimental building in several regards, Commissioner’s House may have been the first domestic project anywhere to use cast iron to support its floors and roof. Rescued from near dereliction through a protracted, award-winning restoration, the building—one of the most important on the island—now houses

57 exhibits on slavery, history of tourism, Bermuda’s connections with the West Indies and the Azores and Bermuda’s military and seafaring history. Open during regular Museum hours.

ST. GEORGE’S AND EASTERN PARISHES St. George’s — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is where it all began, when in July 1609 the Sea Venture — en route from England to the new colony of Jamestown Virginia — encountered a violent storm and was shipwrecked on Bermuda’s reefs less than a mile off what is now St. Catherine’s Point. Miraculously, all on board survived the disaster and swam ashore to Gates Bay, located at the eastern end of St. George’s. Telephone 441 297-1423 ST. GEORGE’S VISITOR INFORMATION CENTRE Town of St. George The St. George’s Visitor Information Centre (VIC) conveniently located at the Globe Hotel, 32 Duke of York Street, St. George’s.

Every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday until November 30, 2011, the town crier, colorfully decked out in tunic, breeches and tricorn hat, rings his bell and shouts “Oyez! Oyez!” (Hear Ye!). This is to convene his `tribunal,’ which will mete seventeenth-century justice to a nagging wench at the ducking stool nearby. By all means try out the stocks for yourself. This is a fun photo opportunity. TUCKER HOUSE Water Street The only museum in St. George’s furnished as a period residence, Tucker House offers a glimpse into the lifestyle of a prosperous eighteenth-century Bermudian merchant. Built around 1752, Tucker family treasures are in evidence throughout the house, including fine family portraits by Joseph Blackburn.

Admission $5.students $2. 297-1423. ST. PETER’S CHURCH Duke of York Street Situated in appropriate loftiness above the main street of St. George’s, St. Peter’s Church is one of the island’s most beloved landmarks and is the oldest Anglican church continuously occupied in the New World. The first church on the site was constructed in 1612 of native cedar and a thatched roof. This original edifice was replaced seven years later by a more permanent structure that lasted almost a hundred years, until the

THE OLD RECTORY Broad Alley, St. George’s, behind St. Peter’s Church Built in 1699, this charming cottage on one of the numerous picturesque back streets in St. George’s is one of Bermuda’s oldest houses. Acquired in 1700 by Captain George Dew, an unsuccessful privateer who became a St. George’s assemblyman, The Old Rectory acquired its current name when it became the residence of the Rev. Alexander Richardson in the last quarter of the eighteenth century. Outisde viewing only. ST.

Open Tues-Sat 10am3pm. Admission $4. 297-4126. TOWN HALL AND THE STATE HOUSE Town of St. George Town Hall, the handsome building commanding King’s Square and bearing the town crest was begun in 1802, a few years after the Corporation of St. George’s was founded in 1797. The State House, located up a gentle elevation behind Town Hall, is one of the island’s oldest, most historically important buildings. Erected around 1620 by Governor Nathaniel Butler, the State House is open to the public 10am-4pm on Wednesdays only. THE UNFINISHED CHURCH Duke of Kent Street, St. George’s The impressive Gothic vestige that looms over the town of St. George’s was begun in 1870 as a replacement for St. Peter’s, which had fallen into a state of serious

disrepair. Designed by William Hay, the Scottish-born architect who later drew the plans for Hamilton’s cathedral, the St. George’s church was abandoned in 1899 when near completion. FORT ST. CATHERINE St. Catherine’s Point, St. George’s Fort St. Catherine stands on the site of one of the four towers that Governor Richard Moore erected along Bermuda’s coast around 1613.

Acquired by the St. David’s Historical Society, this small house with its unusual ‘welcoming arm’ stairs has been converted into a museum that commemorates the pre-war agrarian traditions of St. David’s. Open Saturday 10:00am-4:00pm. ST. DAVID’S LIGHTHOUSE Mount Hill, St. David’s Constructed of Bermuda stone, this 55-foot structure is one of two local lighthouses.

Open 9-4, Mon-Fri from Nov - Mar. Admission is free. CRYSTAL CAVES & FANTASY CAVES Wilkinson Avenue, Bailey’s Bay Two young boys discovered this magical underground world comprising stalactites, stalagmites and a clear, fifty-five foot deep lake by accident in 1905.

is ready

Bolero Brasserie opened in April 2007 and in just over four years has been awarded five ‘Best of Bermuda’ awards, most recently ‘Best Fine Dining’ and the ‘Award of Excellence’. Bolero’s entrance is tucked down a narrow alley-way off Front Street, giving the place a sense of secrecy, a place that ‘only the locals know about’. Like a typical local neighborhood joint with a busy, lively, and bustling Brasserie/ Bistro atmosphere, the clientele all seem to know each other at Bolero and are clearly there for the same reasons; good food, friendly efficient service, and an overall enjoyable relaxed dining experience. If the service staff don’t already know you, you will feel like a ‘regular’ by the time you leave. Assistant managers George and Nick will make sure of this! Owner and Chef Jonny Roberts and his kitchen team produce a menu that he terms “simple, honest, and unpretentious”. His new cook book ‘Chefs Don’t Feel Pain’, not only reveals the secrets of Bolero’s current culinary success, it also includes tales about the personal life of the man behind the scenes; not for the faint hearted, Jonny’s very truthful and at times blunt account of life in ‘Chefdom’ will make you chuckle! As Bolero tends to fill up quickly, avoid disappointment and reserve a table ahead of time. Current menus can be viewed, and reservations can be made on www.bolerobrasserie.com or call 441 292 4507. Bolero Brasserie, 95 Front Street, Hamilton, is open Monday to Friday for lunch 11.30 a.m. - 2.30 p.m. and for dinner Monday to Saturday 6 p.m.-10.30p.m. Closed all day Sunday.

EDMUND SMITH ASCOTS How long have you been in Bermuda and what is the story behind you and Ascots? I came to Bermuda from Ireland and have been here for about 26 years. I originally worked at the Royal Palms and was approached to open Ascots. Angelo Armano, my partner, manages the floor and the wine while I manage the kitchen. We have a great strength inside the kitchen and out on the floor, we marriage that together and it creates a solid venue. Ascot’s is real team environment. What makes your job memorable? When someone comes back to us, remembers us, and holds Ascots with high regard, it’s very rewarding. You realize how great of a place you have created. Recently we had a write up in the Boston Globe and we were nominated one of the best places in Bermuda to have dinner. Have you ever had a disaster in the kitchen? We had a wedding party here at Ascots, 18 people. There was a big storm, trees collapsed and it knocked the cables down (this was back before we had cables underground). The power went out and the kitchen was in darkness. I had already prepared a few of the appetizers, scallops wrapped in bacon, Porcini Mushrooms, etc. I set up mini burners and had a few people lighting them to heat them up. The groom busted in and asked “what’s going to happen?” I said, “leave it to me”. I had to think quickly, we had a room full of guests. I sent someone to Robin Hood to pick up a bunch of pizzas. I spruced the pizzas up with some truffle oil and sent them out. The guests had a blast and were so excited. They said it was the best time of their life. Their wedding was later published in Vermont magazine and they quoted the disaster

71 turned success featuring gourmet pizzas from Ascots. We were able to create a really positive dynamic by improvising. At the end of the evening they were clapping and yelling, you did it!!! Tell us more about your wine room, main dining room and garden porch! Our private wine room seats up to 15 people and can be opened up offsetting the main dining room to accompany a larger event. There is a wine cellar just off the back of the wine room. The garden porch is perfect for pre-dinner cocktails. Weather permitting it can be set up and will accommodate up to 32 people. The main dining room seats up to 65 people, over looks the Royal Palms outdoor pool. Curtains can divide the room so there is the ability to accommodate any type of special event. Can you share a special recipe with us? I created a recipe for a cookbook that is a combination of recipes by various chefs around the world. I was chosen as a chef from Bermuda to contribute. The book’s purpose is to raise money for charity’s that are related to the hospitality industry particularly to assist chefs who have had accidents in the work place. Pan Roasted Veal Chop Accompanied with a oven roasted tomato wrapped with apple Smoked bacon, edged with a veal jus. -10oz Veal Chop -2 slices of apple smoked bacon -1 tomato -Seasoning – chopped garlic, thyme, salt and pepper -Olive oil. -2oz veal stock. Method Season veal with garlic, fresh thyme, salt and pepper. Heat pan until smoking hot and sear on both sides, add tomato to frying pan wrapped with the smoked bacon and roast for 6-8mins in a hot oven at 240C. Remove from oven, drain of any fat, put tomato and veal on serving plate, add veal jus to pan, reduce by half, season to taste and serve. SUGGESTED WINE BY ANGELO ARMANO

Veal in general is a very delicate mild meat but the Chop with the bone on will give a more rustic flavor. WINE SUGGESTIONS: Wine is always a personal perception: • Row Eleven Pinot Noir, Santa Maria Valley California This is an excellent Pinot Noir; expressive yet delicate with soft aroma of cherry and red berry like fruit, medium body low acidity. Santa Maria Valley benefits from cool ocean breeze perfect for a longer maturing season and Pinot Noir grapes love to mature slow. • Tancredi Donnafugata “Nero D’Avola/Cabernet Sauvignon” Sicily, Italy This wine is a fantastic example of a blend created with a main stream grape and indigenous local grape. Sicily has a very warm climate and is expressed with all its intensity in this wine. You can look for dark mature cherry, layers of dark chocolate, leather and tobacco. Soft yet very bold of medium to full body character.

The ambience is unforgettable – every time. It is absolutely a must if you are a visitor to the island and if you don’t take your visiting guests to this hot spot, it could be why they don’t want to come back and visit you again. When you stop in look for Charlie or Marvin and try one of their fabulous drinks!

In Flanders Field the Poppies Grow Remembrance Day known as Poppy Day, Armistice Day or Veterans Day is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth countries to remember the members of their armed forces who have died on duty in World War I. Poppy Day is observed on 11 November to recall the official end of World War I on that date in 1918, as the major hostilities of World War I were formally ended “at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month” of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice The red remembrance poppy has become a familiar emblem of Remembrance Day due to the poem In Flanders Fields. Here are some “poppy seed” recipes to bring along to your celebration of this very important day.
