Guests are greeted by the charming décor, friendly and professional staff and the aroma of tasty fresh food. Armed with 18 years of experience in the restaurant industry, Walkers Wine Bar and Grill Seafood Restaurant owner and operator Ron Perruzza opened the seafood restaurant two years ago with the hope of creating a new dining experience in Mississauga. "I love the restaurant industry," Perruzza said. "I've always been in the restaurant business and I wanted to stick with seafood because it's a lot healthier for you." The life-long Mississauga resident and entrepreneur purchased the restaurant, leaving the Walkers Fish Market brand behind and restructuring the business as an elegant neighbourhood destination for guests to dine, socialize and host private parties. Perruzza said that since opening Walkers Win Bar & Grill Seafood Restaurant, private parties have become more and more popular for baptisms, birthday parties, business parties, retirement paties and a host of weddings. "We've been pleasantly surprised by the people booking out the whole restaurant for a wedding," Perruzza said. "The restaurant atmosphere is great, it's very warm and inviting. If you want a small, intimate event, it's the perfect place for it." Walkers Wine Bar & Grill Seafood Restaurant, located just east of Winston Churchill Boulevard, can accommodate up to 270 people, including the patio that accommodates up to 100 guests, Perruzza noted. The menu features decadent high-end seafood favourites including stuffed Atlantic salmon served with roasted potatoes and market vegetables, dynamite shrimp served over sticky rice, a fresh oyster selection and lobster risotto. For those with a narrower palate for fish, the Walkers menu also includes delicious fish and chips plates. Catering to all tastes, the menu also includes artisan pizzas and pastas and a variety of starters, soups, salads and streaks. In addition there is a large selection of wines, spirits and draft beer to choose from, including Walkers Wine Bar and Grill Seafood Restaurants' house wine and house draft. Perruzza emphasized that Walkers Wine Bar & Grill Seafood Restaurant's offerings feature fresh ingredients, with most of the seafood sourced from Canada. In addition to hosting weddings, Perruzza said the restaurant's staff is also involved in hosting several charity events, including events for Hamilton Health Sciences and Make-A-Wish Canada. "We love to get involved with charities and special causes," the restaurant owner said. "It brings a lot of awareness to us and the charities. Management and staff at Walkers take great pride in the numerous achievements being executed daily, whether it is two guests or 200 guests, when our guests leave happy, we are happy."

Oakville Maid Right: Not just another home cleaning company As the first Maid Right Master Franchisee in Ontario, long-time Oakville resident Jim Craven is excited to introduce Maid Right's unique home cleaning model to families in Oakville and Halton Region. With Maid Right, clients benefit from exceptional house cleaning services, delivered with the personal touch and dedication of an independent business owner. "Our owner/operator model is designed to eliminate two common frustrations homeowners have with their cleaning service, the constant turnover of the cleaning crew in your home and the inconsistent quality that comes with that," said Craven. Maid Right is equally committed to exceptional customer service. Maid Right's customer service program is all about developing long-term relationships with its clients and ensuring that they exceed their expectations. The program includes follow-up calls, the use of communication logbooks that are left in the client's home, regular surveys of customer satisfaction and frequent quality checks. With its EnviroShield® whole home disinfecting system, Maid Right also takes home cleaning to the next level. Using a proprietary misting technology and environmentally safe cleaning agent, this process eliminates 99.99 per cent of the harmful contagions in your home, surrounds any surface and eliminates bacteria on tough to reach areas. "I truly believe that Maid Right offers a superior experience for the consumer. That was one of the attractions of Maid Right", said Craven. "The other was the opportunity to work with and help other people who want to be in business for themselves." "Maid Right offers the chance for people to make a lifestyle choice not to work nights anymore, not to work weekend shifts, not to need two part-time jobs to pay the bills, but rather to be able to control their own work schedule, to turn hard work into financial success, and to take control of their own financial future. We do that by helping individuals start, and then grow, their own home cleaning business," said Craven. The Maid Right owner/operator model is extremely flexible and can be designed to suit someone who needs to be home at a certain time every day, someone who only wants to work a couple days a week, or someone who wants to operate a full-time business. "It was very rewarding to be an Oakville Beaver Readers' Choice award winner in our first year of business. Clearly it's an indication that we are doing something right," said Craven. "It's equally rewarding to know that at the same time we are bringing the dream of business ownership to members of the community."
