The Asians invade Wells Branch!

Many of you know already, but for those of you who don't, Nat & Marisa [I PEE FREELY & FREE MEAT] are opening up a restaurant on Wells Branch along with Marisa's sister, Alisa. It will be a Thai and Japanese restaurant. It is located here. The Chon Som blog was just created and you can find it here.
It's very exciting to watch everything unfold for them since day 1. We had a celebratory happy hour back on June 12 [the day they officially signed the papers] that turned into an all night party!
We were pumped up from the beginning and started ripping down the ugly wall paper that evening. Since then, hashers have been contributing their time and energy into helping them with little tasks as well as big projects. I can't wait to see the final product! It was a little strange at first because it looked like the old owners just up and walked out in the middle of the day and left everything behind. Things are now much more organized and their restaurant is coming together nicely!

Anyway, the name of the restaurant is Chon Som. They are currently scheduled to open in the middle of August, but things seem to be moving along quickly. So who knows, maybe they will open the end of July?? Whoo-hoo!

Keep up the good work everyone! Here are all of my pics of the restaurant.

P.S. For those that go help them out, they've been cooking delicious Thai dinners for everyone. Yum Yum! And how could I forget about the always stocked beer fridge! How else would you repay a hasher?!?
