Real April’s Behind the Scenes.
We live fast-paced lives, sometimes filled with chaos, and unless we experience a power outage, like the one that happened in Spain a few days ago, we rarely stop to reflect on everything we’re achieving without technology. That’s why I aim to stop and write once a month, appreciate the journey, and honestly share everything that happens behind the scenes at a small business, without holding back or editing videos or photos, just as I would show it to a friend.
April has been a roller coaster. We’ve long wanted a space of our own, where we can park the food truck, cook, and experiment with all the ideas that come to mind, such as making fresh pasta without eggs.
At the beginning of the month, we signed the contract for our future production kitchen, and it was a mixture of feelings: a bit of anxiety because it needs a lot of work and happiness because a year ago, it was exactly what we wanted
Although having so much to do is sometimes overwhelming, we’re getting help from friends, which makes us extremely grateful and much more bearable.
Another great achievement is having a fixed location once a month in Edinburgh, making it easier for people to try our food. Going to festivals and having people find you is cool, although having a regular one is even cooler. So we had a very good first experience at Leith Market. (We will be there every third Saturday of the month)
Remember how I said everything was a roller coaster? I feel like the sequence of photos, arranged in chronological order, says it all. You can’t help but have a photo of Sold Out, or a picture of a hole in the wall, which makes you have to fix even more things.
Overall, we’re enjoying learning new things, tackling exciting projects, and ending the month enjoying ice cream in the sun.
See you next month
