Krispy Fish and Chips

11/04/2023

Hello my Krispy Fam
Please be aware this is going to be a long post so thank you in advance if you get to the end 🤣❣️.

First of all Happy Happy Belated Easter and I hope everyone stays safe and sound.

So my last post was talking about a possibility of us opening somewhere 🤔.
It has happened, though not what we originally had planned to do. In another life before Krispy and actually during Krispy we had another business. We use to run a healthy Cafe inside a gym for 4 years. We delved into healthy eating and provided meal plans to our gym clients as well as other clients from other gyms. We did generic meal sizes as well as specific macro calories based meals designed individually for each clients.
We then did a 360 and decided to throw ourselves into opening a fish and chip shop. Why not we thought.
One thing about Mark and I is when it comes to food, we can do anything and it will come out delicious. We pride ourselves on that.
While operating Krispy I still had a few client's who were meal planning, getting their meals delivered or picking up from our fish and chip shop. It was funny in the beginning to see them walk into a deep fried shop and then walk out with healthy meals.
Cut short we are now making delicious food at the Logan City Rugby Union Club, 200 Queens Road Slacks Creek.
So we are not far from you guys at all.
Original plan was to hire out their kitchen for meal planning but we all got talking and here we are opening Monday to Friday from 9am to 2pm serving coffees ( yes I make coffee too) food, snacks etc. We then also open Wednesday and Friday nights to the members and their families while their kiddies train. We are teaching and introducing healthy eating to the kids slowly. It's been wonderful how they have reacted to our meals.
We have only been open for 4 weeks so still finding our feet.
We plan to open up on a Friday night in future to offer the things you all loved 😍. But we need to build up to it as we only have limited space for a deep fryer here.

So if you have missed Mark and I please come and visit us and enjoy other foods we make that we didn't at the fish and chip shop. As soon as we work out about our pop up Friday night takeaway/ eat in, you guys will be the first to know xx

The video below are of the kids first family dinners when they all finished training. It was a success and we loved how much they loved our food

Please head onto our page
Um we have two hahaha so if you could all lovingly like and follow our pages I would so much appreciate it.
Anyone wanting to know more about meal planning don't hesitate to message me xx
Honestly with what I went through last year and my mental health I honestly did not think I would be working in food so soon.
Love you all Mary

To my darling Krispy Fam

I hope you are all well and you all had an amazing Xmas with your loved ones. Cant believe 2022 is almost over. This time last year I was so sick with covid and our shop was closed.
Never in a million years did I think our ending of 2022 would be similar but permanent.

We miss you all and we also miss our food🤣🤣
I haven't been able to eat fish and chips since we closed cause well there arent many good ones around near me 🤣.

I just wanted to pop pass and say hello and that I hope you all have a great and safe weekend and that 2023 brings you joy, happiness, strength and love. If 2023 gives you struggles, sadness and unfairness, please remember it's only temporary and things will get better, even if it feels like it never will. Believe me I have been there and never thought I would get to the other side. I'm still walking towards it but the light is getting brighter everyday❣️

2022 has taught me so many things and also gave me so many emotions, that often times I felt like it was going to consume me. Without the love and support of my family and friends I wouldnt have recovered the way I have.
If it wasn't for my Krispy fam who checked in on me via Facebook, text, email, even up until today, my faith in humanity may have not recovered so well.
So thank you my dear fam for the amazing support and loyalty you have given my fam and me.
It's made me realise that I will one day return to you all, it may take a while, a long while but you will be the first to know when it happens.

Love love to you all

Mary 😘😘

Hi everyone 👋

Hard to believe that it has been 3 months now that our beloved shop closed down❣️
I know I said I would be posting so I am sorry it has been a minute since I did.
To be honest with everyone, I needed to concentrate on my mental health and myself as it really took its toll on me.
I am so comforted by so many of you who still messages me daily and checks in on me. It really helped with mending my broken heart.
Mark and I opened this business not knowing how it would work out or how it would end. We just wanted to make good food and create a family environment for our customers. Looking back now I realized we did achieve that and then some.
So Krispy Fam this is my loving message to you :
If you are struggling out there, if you feel lost, hurt or confused, it's okay, its going to be okay and you are going to okay.
Life sucks sometimes it really does, its not fair but you have to accept it, deal with it no matter how hard it is going to be, then you can finally move on and move forward.
IT has taken me 3 months to move pass the sadness, the devastation, then the anger, absolute anger of unfair treatment, things going wrong, hoping that one day karma will kick in.
I literally simultaneously was at the right place at the right time, at the wrong place at the wrong time. Only Mary could achieve that haha.

I can honestly and sadly say that there will not be a Krispy Fish and Chips in the near future. It will take me quite a while to get back into the kitchen of fish and chips. I am not saying forever but for now Krispy deserves the rest.
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart ( tears are pouring down right now) for all the love, support I have received. It has kept me strong and loved.😘❣️

I won't delete the page but my posting will not be frequent.
When I am ready for my new venture I will post on here to let you know if you are still following me. It will be food related of course haha.

Thank you and love love love always
Mary

Hi Krispy Fam❣️. Mary here it's been a minute but I had to come on and say hello.
We are all missing everyone too❣️❣
I'm so humbled by messages of support I'm still receiving daily. One message just before had me in tears all over again 😭.
I'm sorry we did not get the time to say our proper goodbye to the community that has embraced us and loved our food.
It's been hard for me to process and I get angry and sad sometimes but then smile because of you guys.
Thank you for all the love and I am thinking of keeping this page open and perhaps come on to share recipes, hints, stories updates, what do you think krispy fam ?❣️❣️ Love Mary

Hey there Krispy Fam❣️

Mary here just wanted to wish all our mothers out there a
Happy Mother's Day ❣️.

Make sure you take time out for yourself as I myself have found out this week, looking after your Mental Health is very important ❣️.

Despite the sadness and stress of this week, I have had a good day today surrounded by my babies ( they are all adults but will always be my babies)💕

Sending my Krispy fam all my love😘

Hi everyone Mary here❣️

I come to you with a heavy heavy heart.
I'm sitting typing this with tears pouring down. I thought about doing a live video but I don't think I could keep my emotions in check.

It looks like this may be the end of the road for Krispy.
We have tried in the last two days to save having to close our doors but to no avail.

My whole family and staff wants to thank each and everyone of you from the bottom of our hearts for your love, care and commitment to being part of our Krispy Fam.

During the last two years we worked so hard to keep our doors open. Many times we thought this is it, but somehow we found a way to pull through and keep cooking for our Krispy fam who have always been a shining light and supported us wholeheartedly.

Due to costs increasing, pandemic issues, and severe financial difficulties. No matter what avenues I tried to find in the last few days to get pass this, it has not worked out.

I can't even begin to tell each and everyone of you how much we truly appreciated and love you all.
The friendships and commaderie we have created will stay with us forever.
I'm completely heartbroken as I have loved every moment of creating our community, seeing the smiles on your faces enjoying our meals, the stories you have told me, the sad, the ugly, and the happy ❣️

Thank you so much for bringing such joy to my heart the last 2 years and we hope we have done the same for you❣️

Love Always
Mary.

EDIT: The most amazing bunch of humans that I always knew our Krispy fam would be . From that bottom of my broken heart thankyou for the private messages and all the messages and most of all those willing to help to keep us open. I am beyond blessed, we are all struggling and yet here you all are offering help, which I respectfully and lovingly say no to😘 I love you all ❣️❣️
