HOME, SWEET HOME

We are preempting our scheduled blog entry on the hiring of the new staff to bring you breaking news…

This week, in a very special Bel Air blog update (cue the 1970’s ABC After School Special theme music)…

WE’RE HOME! The corporate staff has relocated from the mobile executive tiger cage/sweat box at the back of the parking lot (previously detailed in the “TRAILER PARK” entry) to our plush new offices above the restaurant. And there was much rejoicing.

Just like George and Weezie, we moved on up!


The place is alive with new staff orientation, finishing touches being added to the décor, and the familiar sound of the bar audio system providing a soundtrack to our work day. It’s like waking up and finding Patrick Duffy in the shower and knowing that the ****** nightmare that we’ve been sharing with all of you for the last year is almost over.

Worst... TV cop-out... EVER!


Still no date to report... OR IS THERE? Check back here at 3:00pm EST, 9/7/07 and find out if "TIME HAS COME TODAY...".

See you soon!

DOES THE CARPET MATCH THE CURTAINS?

Actually, that’s a trick question. There are no curtains; the title of this blog entry is nothing but cheap titillation. There is, however, new carpet, new tile, new trim, new booths, new lighting fixtures and a new bar. We’d love to show you more, but that would ruin your first look during the grand re-opening. So for now, check out these not-too-revealing photos of the new DuClaw Bel Air.

The carpet in question. We decided to Berber now instead of Shag later.


We've got wood... den booths in the dining room.


This is a mosquito trapped in amber. In addition to the beer we're also making our own dinosaurs. Actually it's just a new light fixture but we haven't given up on the dinosaurs yet.


Goth wall art? Yep.


It's a "concrete" fact, you're all going to love the new bar.


Keep watching for a firm re-opening date coming soon, which, unfortunately, will now be sometime in SEPTEMBER. Yes, we said August last time, but the custom solid gold diamond studded name plates for each Bel Air regular’s personal barstool are taking a little longer than expected to fabricate. JUST KIDDING! (About the nameplates, not September.)

Next time, see employment recruitment in action because we’re NOW HIRING.
