Each area we are creating will have it's own feel. This is going to be one of our seating areas complete with vintage orange couches and Keane paintings.
I'll be adding other photos as we work on the various areas of "The Slide Inn"

Wow! we did all the floors today. They look amazing! We are so looking forward to decorating the space. Lenor has such a great eye for details and color.
We have an amazing collection of very themed 70's style decorations that will be going up soon.
Thanks to the help of Armando who has been instrumental in the space coming together.
I am going to start working more on the food pretty soon.

Today I finished building a log table which we will be using in our Lounge area.
The beams are 3" thick.


I also brined sauerkraut since it takes a good month to brine. It will soon turn sour as it begins to ferment.

Our Lighting is up now, looking so cool. It has been so exiting creating a new restaurant.
I think I'll need a couple of days off though.

A lot of our wall space is done in natural wood. It's going to be earthy and natural looking.
Can't wait to get our Mid Century wall sconces hung.

As our theme to "The Slide Inn' is going to be Mid Century Mod we found some artwork done by Margaret Keane during that time.

One of our tables from il Piatto contained a "secret drawer" that only some people knew about, others discovered it during their dining experience, but most did not.
When "The Slide Inn" opens you too can create your own memories if you discover the specific table where hundreds of messages were found.

Can you imagine a place called "The Slide Inn" that would not even have a fireplace,
Well we do. You might not be able to warm your toes next to it, but it does glow.
We have been hunting for treasures, and we had to buy this one.
