The learning curve is/was tremendous and it will continue for a bit!<br />I am new to the world of restaurant owning but not new to the world, learning or being flexible. I hope I can count you guys to help me grow in a positive way, thereby providing you with a positive and enjoyable experience at Donna's Cafe!<br />I look forward seeing you all VERY soon!<br />PeaceDonna Adamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-5476375805481193282011-01-07T10:26:45.214-06:002011-01-07T10:26:45.214-06:00Harper Gallery - Community Art Show - Jan 18th 5pm...Harper Gallery - Community Art Show - Jan 18th 5pm - 9:30pm.

Like many new businesses starting from scratch, there are bumps along the way. She's on track to open in January.

Trinity Christian College will have evening classes there but there are a bunch of other non-profits going in as well (not all are "religious"). I'm talking music lessons for children and adults, concert series, counseling services, professional training programs, etc. It's meant to bring good resources to the South Loop.<br /><br />In addition, Overflow Coffee Bar (www.overflowcoffeebar.org) will be in the middle of this space. They are negotiating a lease right now and you should see an announcement by the end of the year.Amandanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-33919074001029569892010-12-09T10:29:32.099-06:002010-12-09T10:29:32.099-06:00I walked through this area last night, and noticed...I walked through this area last night, and noticed a lot of development going on. The new vet has carpeting in, and they were working on something in the back rooms. Across the street, there's some kind of a Christian school that's going in that some men were putting hardwood floors down as I walked by, and work is being done on this new restaurant. The lease sign has been taken down, and some changes have been made to the back of the building when you peek in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-90525475304872646972010-12-09T08:46:01.914-06:002010-12-09T08:46:01.914-06:00Excellent!
