Hi Folks,
it is with much trepidation that I tell you this... but unfortunately the eastside bistro is toast. I went into this endeavor with very little money, even less knowledge, a bunch of good intentions & with (as my Oldest brother put it) a fairly good sized set of balls.
well money is the only thing that could keep it going and I am unfortunately out of it. If I had the money to tough out the starty upy times I know it woulda been a great place. I was getting good feedback from some really great people, but in the begining I had several disasters trying to put the East Side Bistro together (since August of last year). any one of which I should've taken it as a loss and moved on. but no, I thought, ahh I can do it, I can hack it. well I can hack it but my bank account can't.
I want to thank all of you for your kind words & for you trying to make my place a success. You succeeded in making me feel pretty good about what I was doing if only for a bit, but because of that I doo feel that I WAS a success. I will live to fight another day & I hope to see you all out & about soon enough.
Cheers My Friends,
X.O.
