Well, we’re open, but we’ve still got some very important visual elements that need to be installed. Hopefully by week’s end. Hopefully.
I probably irritated the team by insisting on opening before we had our “best foot forward”, but everyone … and I mean EVERYONE … who comes into the space, even in its incomplete condition, LOVES the brand … LOVES the design … LOVES the look.
And now the hard work begins.
I’ve always said that I’m anxious to get open so we can start to learn. Terri Lynn and her crew have done a wonderful and masterful job of creating a very cool and cozy context. Now it’s up to all of us to figure out what is right and what needs tweaking. Now it’s time to listen and watch and react. It’s a daunting challenge. But it’s what I do best, and I’m looking forward to raising our new “child” from this very cool beginning!
