and suddenly it is september!

One year ago, this week, 1/2 of the kismet staff was laid off due to flooding from Hurricane Irene.  In a last chance effort to save the restaurant and attempt to recover from 2 near fatal floods in one year, we reduced our hours and our staff and have existed for the last year ambitiously working off our 2011 losses, and awaiting the day that we could renovate the restaurant and re-open with more weekday hours.  Alas, that time has come! & we are in the midst of renovation plans & scheduling interviews for additional staff & positions!
