Chile Time

We have two walk in refrigeration units that we have to move into our new place before we can get final inspections on everything.  The refrigerator is 6X10 and the freezer is 8X10.  They are basically little rooms.  Several people have wondered how these rooms will be moved.  They are both modular, with the walls able to be taken apart and reassembled elsewhere.  It will take a few days to get them apart and then put them back together.  When they are reassembled they will need to be rewired and replumbed so that they have power and drainage available.  It is getting closer.

The latest news on our big move is that we should be in our new place by the time everybody is wearing green.  The hold up at this moment is that we didn't schedule in advance getting our walk-in refrigeration units moved.  We didn't know when we would be able to do them so now we have to wait two weeks.  Once they are moved over everything else should be able to follow them shortly.  Instead of lying about how many months it is going to take, we can now confidently start lying about how many weeks.

Once again we find ourselves telling our customers that we can't sell them something.  In this case it is actually two things that we are going to be without for awhile.  The first is again the Red Hots.  Unlike the last time this isn't an issue of finding the red jalapenos but in storing them.  When we get ready to make our move our freezer will be down for four days and we don't have anywhere to stash 2,000 pounds of frozen jalapeno.  As soon as we get the freezer over and operational we'll order the jalapenos and make Red Hots again.  The other product is the Green Enchilada Casserole.  The source for one of our ingredients went out of business so we switched to a new source; they are currently sold out and we can't find anywhere else to buy vegetarian chicken broth powder.  We'll keep you updated on how everything goes.
