The Commodore is quite the happening place in Kamloops.  You can stop in for a cappuccino and tapas, or full course entrée and drinks, or a night of music and dancing.  But previous generations will remember the venue slightly differently, as it has been an historic fixture of Victoria Street and the downtown core of Kamloops.

We arrived in the evening and instantly felt at home in the cozy atmosphere as we browsed their menu.  Our hosts encouraged us to try some of their signature drinks, and so I had a "Man Whore" while Steve ordered a "Commodore Kool-Aid" - both went down a little too easily, as did a plate of Thai Curry Mussels from their Tapas menu.

Then we moved on to dinner: I ordered the Commodore Burger while Steve went for the Seafood Curry.  The burger was great but the mussels were fantastic!  I certainly regretted choosing the "safe" option this time.  I ended up trading some of my turf for Steve’s surf.

All in all, Commodore Grande Café and Lounge offers great food and great atmosphere!  You would be hard pressed not to find a reason to stop by while visiting Kamloops.
