Also, we began Phase II of demolition work, as you can see below. And we are cutting new trenches for the plumbing lines and grease trap with one badass wet saw. (Core Cut: Model# CC3700) When you dig into the floor of a 75 year old building, anything can happen. The building has undergone several expansions over the years and let's just say, shortcuts were taken. 75 years of "My brother-in-law can do that..." But it is now stripped to the bones and we believe that we have uncovered most of the legacy surprises. Now it's time to create an entirely new legacy. One rooted in forcemeat!
Also we've had productive meetings with POS companies, A/V providers and security firms; and retained Spark, a PR/Marketing/Social Media agency.
Finally, I'd like to welcome Jeremy Guthrie, Food & Beverage Director to the JJ's team. We are very excited to have Jeremy on board. I witnessed firsthand his accomplishments at Vintner Wine Market over the past few years, and trust me, the kid has got game.

A closer look at the cuts...smooth as marble.
Blockhenge
These were the old swinging kitchen doors. Big and heavy. Gonna strip and refurb them for the front doors with new etched porthole glass.
