Other Details:
History of Pinocchios Part 1 ...Pinocchios was created out of two needs. One, to provide for my children. The other, was to provide a great place to eat, in the community I lived in.After my divorce, as many people can relate to, I needed to find a way to support my three children. With no money in the bank, I refinanced the only possession I had (my car) and used the money to open Pinocchios. With the support of a landlord that believed in my concept, I opened in October 2003 in a little space on Main Street.Times were tough those first few years. There were days I worked in the kitchen during the day, and waited on tables at night--hoping to make enough money to pay my grocery bill. Slowly but surely, people found Pinocchios and helped spread the word. My daughter, Erica worked with me from day one, and has been an inspiration at every turn.After five years at my first location, I decided to make the (huge) move to Harvest Junction at Hwy 119 . It felt very risky at the time, but it seems to have been the right move. With a clean new building and a HUGE parking lot, business has continued to improve.The restaurant business is a true joy for me. Not only do I get to be involved with families celebrations and people enjoying a meal out, but I can have my kids and (new) husband nearby!
