well, that's an unpleasant suprise

got a call this morning that the restaurant caught fire this morning. the only thing that burned was the walk in. but there is smoke/water damage all over the kitchen.

dammit, i suppose it's off to get a job to hold me over.

L & P,

good news. the insurance is set up so that the owners can continue to pay us for a while. so suddenly thinks are less stressful.

here are some pictures. bandwidth warning

That looks like it is going to take quite a while to clean up

If the only thing to burn was the walk-in, there seems to be more damage to the rest of the place than what I would have expected. Again, I am only judging this by the pictures.

Is the cause of the fire known yet?

First off, please accept my condolences and sympathy AND empathy, hae to see people have to pound the pavement anytime, but in these crap times...

Secondly..is there any chance things got mixed up in your earlier post?

It looks like the only thing hat may not have burnt up was a walk in.

Man, carrots all over the place. Wonder why they were soo resilliant to the flames.

And the palstic jugs didnt melt, i guess it didnt get that hot so that means everything burned at a fast rate.

Good luck with everything, atleast insurance will help along the way. It will be a life story to tell about. Still too bad it had to happen.

it started in the walkin. fire dudes say it was electrical. the rest of the damage was smoke and water. some damage was done to the roof from the fire itself, but most of the roof damage was from the firemen putting holes in it. from looking at what the fire dept did, i think that would be a fun job, getting to tear all that shit up. they tore the ice machine all to hell cause it was in the way.

the insurance co has a team there today to guesstimate the time needed to do repairs.

i'm guessing a couple of months. luckily there are a few new places opening in town.
