Permisiion is granted to operate a...



Restaurant! We passed and received our permit from the health department. We came in just under the wire. We were putting the finishing touches on everything as the inspector was walking across the parking lot.

GC summed everything up (as only he can) "Now the real work begins." Soft opening is scheduled for monday.

Pre Opening Visit - 9 More Things



Glass for the sneeze guard was installed this morning. Health Inspector came by for a pre-opening visit this afternoon. Left with 9 things that needed to be addressed before we can get our permit and open. Inspector will be back late on friday afternoon. We have less than 24 hours to handle all 9 things or we most likely will not be permited till January. Going huddle with the GC and see if we can make it.

Close....to losing my mind



Sneeze guard is in, but alas no glass. Same company who made the mistakes with the sink that I wrote about previously decided to cut the wrong glass as well. First time I have ever asked anyone to leave a job, but felt that given their track record we were better off going with another company. We had hoped to be open already but can't without the glass. Local company is going to rush it but even with that still about a week a way.

Failed Plumbing Inspection



Down to our last inspection (not including health department) and the hope was that we would breeze right through. GC called it when he said that someone would find a reason to hold us up for a day or two. Plumbers will be back in the morning to address the inspectors concerns.
