Have you seen them working or do you just know by the address? I'm wondering how close they are to opening.

Rafael,
So excited- we live a mile away!

Assuming that this is the old BoomBozz location, I strongly recommend getting some temporary signage up NOW with a name, concept and when you plan to open. The Hwangs upstairs has a Summer Camp that gets alot of traffic right now ( my son is in it) and it would be some great free publicity for you. There's a big event there on July 29th evening- if you can get something up before it'd get a lot of "eyes" at very little cost. Working with Hwang's on being able to give coupons to their students would be really effective too to introduce folks to your place.

Best of luck!
Deb

Rafael,

Any updates on the opening date? Can't see how much progress has been made ( windows are papered), but drink suppliers were entering when I went to Hwangs today.

Can't wait-
Deb

P.S. Master Hwang made sure to mention your opening at the Tae Kwon Do graduations- to a packed crowd. Glad to see the sign out on Hurstbourne too.
