Five months of negotiating, building, getting through the near impossible NY permitting process, purchasing, equipping, training, laughing, crying and the restaurant finally opened. Wow. What a journey so far. We are one week old we are still scratching the surface of all that we still have to do. I am on a PR tear right now, battling to get our name in papers, magazines, blogs, and on tv. So far, in one week, Eater has written about us and Daily Candy has as well (today!). Time Out New York is coming out next week and AM New York is coming out soon too (they came and took pictures already). I created cool booklets that will be passed around to all networks/editors and we are working on another secret that will be revealed on our Grand Opening Night (Dec 16th).
We are still getting our staff to understand how to execute perfectly the perfection of “Slice, the perfect food”. We still have our office to fully set up. We still have the entire neighborhood to tell the good news to. We still have local schools to approach and talk about our “Pay-it-forward program”. We have to get people in the bar so that there is standing room only. It’s a constant battle and I am up to play and my kick ass team is up to play too.
Spread the news. Invite your friends. We have happy hours ($2.50 for Miller Lite on weekdays from 4:30-7pm), we are getting a couple of flat screens so you can eat the perfect food and watch the perfect game.
Don’t think. Just come. Say hi.
