So this is what I've been up to...
« on: January 23, 2012, 10:24:11 AM »
Hey guys!
So I think my last post was about when I got rid of my car.
Since then, my girlfriend and I have opened a restaurant.
Retro themed. Things have been going pretty good so far.
Anyways.. its hella fun. Anyone in the dfw area should cruise by and check it out!
Here are a couple pictures.












I changed all the artwork on our soda machines to have older logos on them.

and then we have this big orange wall you can see in one of those pics above, that has all these cubbies that I put a bunch of assorted goodness in.
Here's a couple pics of that stuff.






Nothing super cool Firebird related up yet.. although I do have an old firebird ad in the men's room. haha.

Anyway, just wanted to share this with you guys. This is what I'm up to now.

Also if you're interested here is our website and facebook

Got a friend in Farmersville.  I've been talking to him about coming down for a few days.  If we do meet up, I'll get your address and stop by.

thanks guys.
business is going surprisingly GOOD!
We have been alot busier than we expected to be.
We do good during the week and it gets crazy on the weekends. Slowly but surely building up a good group of regulars.
Got a good amount of family working up there. Its a ton of fun.
One of my uncles is our head cook. He's been doing this for over 10 years or so. He's been teaching me the ways.


And we're at 5500 N Tarrant.
Its south keller/north fort worth.
The other side of the street is considered Keller.
Come by sometime!

I just passed by today before reading where you were at.  I was driving and saw it as I passed by, I didn't realize you were so close.  I live right down the road off of Ray White road.  I certainly will be stopping by.  It looks like a great place.

Cool, definitely pop in. I'm there most of the time, though sometimes I'm hiding in the back.

And yeah.. I've been lurking here and there Brett. haha
