Along with the announcement, the post discussed the complete physical transformation that has already happened, describing what's left as "the final stretch before [they] reopen with a brand new vision for [their] original space." 

The post also explained what the team were hoping for with the new development, saying, "We are looking to create food experiences that bring people together in a space to inspire joy, family connection and collaboration."

As an incentive, the post also explained how those who support the crowd funder will receive special perks including exclusive access to book at the new restaurant as well as special event bookings; invitation to the opening garden party; and finally first access to host private events at the venue. As well as teasing other awards to be revealed later.

Stay posted as further information is set to come as the opening gets closer.
