LUCKIEST
The diner does have a location. It is located adjacent to a senior living community, and within a 2 mile radius of The UT Southwestern Medical Center, Children's Medical Center and Parkland Hospital. We are also within 2 miles of Dallas Love Field Airport and Brookhollow Country Club. The location is great. In addition, there are very few non-fast food establishments in the area that are not Mexican food.
The $15,000 will be going mostly to construction to increase the size of the dining area while decreasing the size of the kitchen. The kitchen is unnecessarily large, and we need the dining space more than we would need the kitchen space. My husband used to be a general contractor, so he is doing that himself. In addition, this will cover other expenses, such as permitting, beginning inventory, etc. We do have accounts set up with food vendors, however, we would like to be able to buy some of the inventory with cash.
As I said, the kitchen is very large, and we actually have some catering companies that are interested in using the kitchen for their food preparation, which will help us with our monthly rent expenses.
