We closed our doors not our hearts
We closed our doors on Sunday.
What an emotional week it has been.
I had to chef to cover holidays and I was thinking that I should have been on the floor for the last week. Anyway, being in the kitchen was so merciful as it allowed me to put my strong face on and open the waterworks in the kitchen later.
I was completely overwhelmed by the amount of flowers bouquets, cards, phone calls, messages, and emails we received.
Many customers visited multiple times that week. When I thought when did I ever send a card to a restaurant? Never... we were not just a restaurant for you and you were not just customers for us. You felt our personal approach. You mattered to us and we mattered to you.
We loved you as you are and you loved us for this.
From 9 years of experience, I can truly say that good people outnumber bad people. Yes, there are some ...holes but they are like weeds in a beautiful garden.
Believe in humanity
I got asked a lot what are my plans. I really have no clue. Those 9 years took everything of me. For now, I just feel grieving. Surely time will heal this. I will start by spring cleaning Le Chalet, then my house. Hopefully, my mind will be clearer with time.
If you would like to stay in touch my email is [email protected] and my mob is 07715567074
I could leave Le Chalet's email life but I feel that Le Chalet needs to lay into its end the same as the titanic, the beautiful sunk ship.
Love you
