History / Biographical
Zink's Food Store was opened by Albert Zink in 1932 at 361 1st Street in Brandon's east end. The straightforward form and construction of the building - stucco over wood frame - was typical of such ventures, allowing for large signage at the front and clear open spaces within. Refurbished in 1999 as Chyrel's Tea Room, the building was designated Manitoba Municipal Heritage Site No. 220 on October 29, 2001. At present (August 2008), it is the site of Teahan's Corner.
Scope and Content
Photograph shows the meat counter at Zink's food store.
