CARMELITA REDUX
Whew! What a week! What a transformation! For 9 days (not quite the 5-6 we thought) we worked from dawn to dusk. And that’s a long time when it’s summer in Seattle. We had the most incredible time working with our amazing family and kick-ass friends. Everyone pitched in with such love and commitment as if it were their own. Our fabulous F&F helped in numerous ways; from having Sam for the day (or night), by helping to create our signature cocktails, to painting, problem-solving, hammering and hanging the fixtures, everyone worked SO hard! AMAZING!
Meanwhile, Carlos and our top-notch kitchen crew were cooking up a storm, developing delectable new recipes for both the dinner menu and the bar menu. Bonus for us… we got to taste test everyday at lunchtime. YUMM!
And now TA-DA! We’re reopened!!
Please join us to celebrate our lovely Carmelita.

Thanks for your continued patronage!
Kathryn, Michael, Carlos and the entire staff at Carmelita
