Still we wait....

It's so frustrating when you know that everything is ready to go - but needless red tape and bureaucracy are getting in the way.
Having said that, we've been using the time well - to re-visit our plans, and to work on our Face book membership scheme.
Loads of people have applied to be on the guest list of our launch event - and none of them will be disappointed (except those who are on holiday or stuff like that).
We've shown a few trusted souls the new menus (food and drink) and feedback has been awesome!

Holding web page is open for business!

Today has seen the launch of Hakamou's holding page - it's lush.
Take a look and let us know what you think:
www.hakamou.co.uk
we've also launched a trial advert campaign on Facebook. It's serving Northampton - and promises up to 60,000 may see it....Time will tell.

This is how Hakamou will feel. No need for me to whitter on (for a change). Just go ahead and feel.

Rather nice isn't it?

Getting Warmer.....

This week has seen Sam step aside from his GM post at The Spot to concentrate on final preparations for the fit out.
As for me, I've been contacting all of the suppliers who have been patiently waiting for us to confirm specification and place orders.
Keep an eye out for the new holding pages on the web site - which will have a chance to invite yourself to the launch party, and to read a bit about the story of Hakamou.

Latest news

We have definately now got the Premises Licence!!!!!

We can also report that all the documents have finally arrived in the post from the solicitor - delayed by all this inclement weather.

So - onwards and upwards.

Chuffin' Snow...

The snow has been great for some additional family time this week, but with no postal delivery since Wednesday we are still waiting for the legal docs.

Sam and I used a weather window to visit a furniture supplier in Birmingham on Wednesday, and have found some top stuff to furnish and dress Hakamou.

Happy Days

Drinks Menu

We've now nailed the drinks menu!!!!

The cocktails, glassware and garnish are of a kind never before seen in Northampton - or anywhere...

This has only served to heighten our excitement, and frustration that things aren't moviong any quicker.
