Hi there, this is Karen Molton with Park Bench 7-2-2-0-5 and I am visiting with Brandon of District Fair. This is located in Oncavanaw right next to the post office and it's a wonderful location. Welcome Brandon. Thank you Ken. So tell me a little bit about your business. Long story, this used to be Hillcrest Artists and Meets. Which I was a faithful customer of. My wife Tara and I owned this business for about 7 years, 8 years. It just got to be taxing and were tired of it and we needed to spend some time with the family. So we sold it tomas who owns the pantry. The pantry is pressed to real successful restaurants here in Lloro. Everybody knows. And he bought it, turned it into District Fair and ran it for about a year. I think it just became too much for him to have 3 restaurants. So he sold it back to a friend of mine, Daniel Bryant, who is the actual owner of the building. Daniel contacted me and asked me if I wanted to come back and write for him. And I for one was thrilled. I'm sure all of your customers are thrilled to see you back. I was so surprised when I came in and there you were. And we kept it, we didn't do any announcements. We kept it on the down low. A lot of people still don't know. And hopefully this will help you get that message. And we're slowly starting to kind of transition back to Hilgrim Artist and Meets. So tell everybody what you do. So when they come in they know. Because I used to come in to buy meat. Also buy sausage that they prepare here. And they have delicious lunches. Sandwiches are a big part of the business. That's one thing we brought back from Ham District Fair. We had a set menu. We're hoping to start with some meats. We change the menu every day. Yeah, that's what made us so happy. Yeah, so you didn't get it stagnant and bored. So we're back to doing that. The menu changes every day. Tomorrow does that for us every morning. We post it on Facebook every morning at 10 o'clock. Certain days of the week we do certain things. Thursday is Ruben Day. Friday is Burger Day. Ruben Day is back. Burger Friday is back. Hot dog Tuesday is back. But That's a big part of it. And then we make all our own sausages, carry our own bacon and all kinds of short cuter we do here. And it's delicious. Good clean meat that we use as local as we can get it. Yeah, but that's one of the things that drew me to it. So do yourself a favor. Come on in. You won't be disappointed. Thank you.
