The former site of Blighty’s, Tapas on Oak started business nine months ago under Victoria-born Dan Massey who lived in Europe and Asia for more than 20 years.
The event has done nothing but grow since it was created by the Oak Bay Business Improvement Association in 2017. The BIA represents 150 businesses in Oak Bay village, hosting celebrations such as the Christmas festival and trick or treat on The Avenue.
