The Amano chocolate brownie.

It's back and better than ever.

The wood floor.

We put the wood floor in this weekend and it looks incredible. This is just a teaser. Wait until you see it all oiled up. You may want to eat off it. Okay maybe not but you will want to at least walk on it.

And no..we don't think these guys are too young to start learning a good work ethic.

Communal update.

We're getting close. And we're getting excited. Here's the tile and hood in the kitchen..






And look at the great tile we discovered just outside the front door..


Downstairs we have our very fancy walk-in freezer..


And this is where we'll prep your food for all your events with our new catering company..


So get excited. It won't be long now.

Coming right along.

Chefs, servers, hosts, drywallers, and now painters. You name the job and we can do it. Communal is really coming along now. From the painting to the flooring. In no time at all we'll all be eating around that big table together. Well maybe you'll be eating and we'll be serving you. But whatever.

From the garden to your table.

We are fortunate enough to get these beautiful tomatoes from Dale Allred in Pleasant Grove at Jacob's Cove Farm. And this is what we do with them..



The tomato mozzarella salad. Come in for dinner to enjoy this soon because as most of you know our menu changes from time to time.

The drywall.

We've now discovered the task at hand is quite large. But not to worry, we're professionals and before you know it you'll be eating inside these very walls we're building.

Our progress so far.

We're not afraid to get our hands dirty.

It's time for the next step. We started demolition on our new restaurant this week and we definitely have our work cut out for us. So if you wonder where we are we'll be in Provo on University Avenue stripping layer after layer off our new home. We're calling it Communal. Can't wait to serve you there.

July 4th

We will be closed all day this July 4th to give us time to blow things up in our neighborhoods like the good Americans that we are.

We will see you Monday July 6th.

Are you part of the club yet?

Here's just one shot to tempt you. This was our lemon curd tart from a previous dinner club. There were no complaints. Spots are filling up quickly each month so call soon to reserve your spot. For more details click here.


And maybe one shot of the geniuses behind it all..
