We can’t believe how fast the summer went by! This has been an amazing first year with us being open! We are very humbled and thankful with the amount of love and support we received from the community! 🫶🏽❤️

We definitely tried to keep up with the demand and appreciate all your patience, while we worked through our obstacles and challenges from being extremely short staffed. 🙌🏽 We do plan on trying to stay open this fall for those lunch hour rushes, but we will still be very short staffed so menu might be limited at certain times. With that being said I hope everyone understands as we try to serve our delicious cuisines before the season is over. 😋

Here is our schedule for this week and we will also be keeping you updated for next week. Thank you again! 🫶🏽

So murpheys law hit us pretty hard at the bike event in Hoyt Lake yesterday; got my fingers caught on the scissor jack setting up the food trailer which ultimately crushed, cut & broke them. Even an ambulance on site advised me to go in for stitches and X-rays to avoid fragments damaging my nerves - I wrapped it up thoroughly with EMT and changed my cloths 😬 So we continued to set up; as the 50 amp plug-ins on site, surged my trailer and knocked out majority of my outlets(GFIs) and equipment/lights along with the breakers knocking out main power 5 times or more and couldn’t get it to work using my generator 😭 having an electrician check it out; as I pray it’s nothing to extensive.

Definitely want to give a shout out to the customers / bikers at the Bike Event that came to eat at our food trailer. They were the most understanding clients as we had ticket orders going past 20 min waits due to my broken fingers and the electrical outages. As we tried to give them free drinks and apps on us for the wait but most refused and said how amazing of a job we did knowing the circumstance’s 🙌🏽 we had to cancel our Side Lake Events west of Chisholm today, till we resolve our electrical issues.

For that matter we will be closed till Saturday and hope we are open to serve at the Marathon Kids at the Iron Trail Motors Event Center from 9am-12pm; following the Olcott Park BrewFest Virginia MN from 4pm-8pm. Thank you all once again for everything and we look forward to serving you this Saturday 🙌🏽
