WE'RE OPEN!!!

We opened shoftly at 5:30 this evening. We hope everyone will come by and see our new look. We're even running a re-Grand Opening special this weekend: Buy any Hand Spun Milk Shake and receive a FREE Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich.

It's been done for YOU. Hope to serve YOU shortly.

AH MAN!

I haven't any pictures to post, but I did want to tell you that our date for opening has been pushed back to Wednesday, December 19th do to some unexpected construction delays.

The store is looking incredible and we can't wait to serve you. Watch out for my team members cleaning equipment behind the restaurant; a couple have almost been hit by cars running the barricades in the back. We want to be in one piece when we serve you!

See you in a few days!

A little late posting the latest pictures, Sorry

I did want to announce that we will OPEN on Monday, December 17, 2007 at a time to be determined based on licenses. Stay tuned for the time!

Here are the progress pictures...

Finishing the Walk-in Refrigerator installation (2x the size of our old one)
New cabinets in our serving area with a lot more space.
New condiment table.

See you in a week and a few days. We can't wait to see YOU!

Monday's work

Here's some more pictures from Monday. I can't wait to show you what Tuesday will look like (I got a glimpse early this morning).

Another view of our beautiful new tile in the serving area.

See you in 2 weeks!!

Friday's Update

Here's the updates for Friday, and things continue to move along smoothly. Considering that there are more building inspectors with more time on their hands to slow the process down, our contractor appears to be doing most things right the first time. Inspections that fail are quickly fixed and readied for the final phase of that project's inspection. I have posted some more pictures below that will show the progress. Fixing water damege from the stucco and brick drive-thru wall

This wall is framed in the area where the ice machine will sit in the new kitchen.

The storage out buildng is being connected to the restaurant's main building, making us just one building. The foundation is laid, and the block is being prepared.

We're installing new, energy efficient signs. No more freon. All LED lights make them more energy efficient and easier to maintain.

New tile in the restrooms is being installed. Early next week the fixtures will be put in place.

We're still ahead of schedule, and looking good for a mid December opening. It's all for YOU!

See you Soon

After one week

It's Monday. The week after Thanksgiving and the guys working on the restaurant have put in overtime to get us reopened as soon as possible. They worked all of last week, took Thanksgiving Day off and plowed through the weekend.

To date, most of the exterior stucco has been repainted. The entire demolition took place last week and we're into construction, and it's happening with all trades. There's painters, masons, electricians, framers, and one supervisor working real hard each day in the restaurant.

They're all working hard to impress YOU!

Here are some pictures I took today (and they say they're ahead of schedule). We'll see you in just a few weeks.

New plywood and FRB wall coverings delivered today; painters working hard

We're adding another soda fountain and this is what it takes to do that.

We're adding a new sink in the kitchen, plus doubling the size of the walk-in refrigerator. This is the prep work for those items to be installed.

We are connecting the out building to the restaurant. The footers are being anchored, and then they'll shoot the foundation before blocking it up.

Remember, mid December and that they SAY they're ahead of schedule. Be sure to wave at our Dining Room Hostess, Virginia as YOU pass the restaurant. She can't wait to see YOU in a few weeks!

3 Days To Go!

We're only three days from closing the restaurant. We're both nervous and excited. It's going to look incredible. Plus, we should be even faster at serving YOU!

Tomorrow, the construction dumpter arrives, and on Friday the first of a few construction inventory PODS show up. It's happening real fast, and before YOU know it, we'll be open again.

If YOU've driven through our drive-thru lane in the last couple of days, you've seen a little landscape activity happening as a result of the remodel. To be blundt, YOU ain't seen nothing yet!

Don't forget that this Friday's deal is a FREE Chick-fil-A Sandwich with any Hand Spun Milk Shake purchase...YUM!

Remember, this is all for YOU!
