Yup, That's the Logo

I finally uploaded my new logo and here it is. emi's cafe is making progress. I still don't have my location worked out yet but the delay has given me the opportunity to really refine my business plan and learn more about green initiatives that restaurants can take take to lower water consumption and electrical usage, even things like composting are an option. And yes, I will implement green practices where ever I can.  I firmly believe that small changes do make a difference. I won't be saving the world, but it's a start.

What's Up and What Have We Been Eating?

So, it's been a while since I've had a chance to write anything. As my followers know I am opening emi's cafe, due to be open this fall. What will we be serving?... you guessed it REAL FOOD for lunch and dinner! The last couple of weeks I have finished up my business plan, been looking at tenative locations and I'm negotiating for one of them, found my website guy and now I'm talking to contractors and kitchen designers. I took my foodservice managers class and test. If you want to know about all the gross things that can happen to your food, and not just at restaurants, I'll be happy to share.

And what have we been eating? Not as much new stuff as I would like. Baseball has started for the boys and that puts a kink in to eating together every night, but worth every minute. We have been making a lot of rice, quinoa, and couscous with diferent veggies and chicken or shrimp.

We are having my parents over this weekend for dinner. I'm going to have a cooking day which I'm really looking forward to. I'm thinking about making a tandoori roast lamb for dinner, but will also be stocking up on granola, salsa and whatever else I'm in the mood for and can whip up with the boys. I'll let you know
