The restaurant is actually in Duncan, BC.
The newspaper who wrote about it and was being delivered is from Victoria, BC.
2 old men are sitting on a tropical beach
The first man says, “I used to run a factory, but there was a fire which wiped my business out. So I took the insurance money and retired”

First man asks, “How do you start a flood?”
Or it was their new marketing campaign he singlehandedly ruined.
Not to take away from this guy’s well deserved praise, but that was some half-assed arson. Burning signs on the side of a corrugated metal wall? I wouldn’t be surprised if they burned themselves out.
