News From The Bistro December 2, 2011

The Days Are Flying By At The Bistro. We Are Finishing Our 7th Week Of Being Open And Have Loved Every Minute Of It. I Can’t Tell You How Fortunate We Feel To Be Back And In Such A Beautiful Space. Yes, There Have Been “Moments” But They Are, For The Most Part, Quickly Manageable. A Few Are Not. For Instance, We Just Got Our Signs Up And Lit. Seven Weeks Without A Lit Sign Has Been A Major Obstacle.  And, The Outside Covered Patio Is Still “A Work In Progress.” Sharon And I Expend A Lot Of Energy On Projects Such As These. It Is Not Only Mentally Draining But, Also, Disappointing On The Lack Of Follow Through By The People Supplying These “Services.”  As Of Yesterday We Were Promised That The Work Will Be Finished Next Week. Because Of Past Experience We’re Not Holding Our Breath. Say Your Prayers That We Are Wrong.

Our Holiday Decorations Are Up And Very Tastefully Done. Tom’s Sister Colleen And Her Husband Charlie Worked Their Magic And The Restaurant Looks Lovely. The Outside Planter’s Are Done Too. Pam Carter And Her Crew Did A Wonderful, Wonderful Job Of Transforming Them Into Works Of Art. Pam Is A Master Gardener And A Visionary When It Comes To Garden Design. I’m Happy To Recommend Her And So Glad She Was Willing And Able To Do The Work For Us.

REALLY GOOD NEWS :
NOVI ROAD
IS NOW OPEN!!! Yeah!

As A Reminder, If You Need Catering, Holiday Or Other, Mary Brady’s Custom Catering Is Up And Running With Our Re-Opening. Call Us With Your Catering Needs. We Design Menus Specifically For Your Event.

My Favorite Comment This Week Was From A Long-Time Guest Who Said “I Love Your New Space. It’s Like Being At A Party In A Kitchen.” That Is Exactly What We Envisioned. Wishes Do Come True. More Important Though, Is That Sharon And I And Our Staff Are Doing What We Are Most Passionate About – Making You Happy While In Our “Care.” That Is Our Goal, Your Total Enjoyment From Start To Finish.  It’s In Each And Everyone Of Our Heart’s And Soul’s To Make Your Visit What We’d Expect If We Were Sitting In Your Seat. The Best Part Is, We Have A Great Time Doing Our Job. How Lucky Is That?
