All the new things came, which was the war, costs, utilities.

So we are still a startup, but we just keep going.

And I would say even through all the hardship and the pain and the frustrations,

The journey of working with my wife, Cecilia, and our kids has been something that I never planned

but it's probably been the best thing that happened.

Working with our kids, actually, who were back then aged, what were they?

18 down to eight, pretty much, or seven.

So you just don't know how that's going to go.

And the kids came into the business to earn some cash.

We dragged them in.

They were typical owner-operator kids.

They get dragged in, often by choice and often not by choice.

So this is a real family business.

Yeah, full on.

There were times when there were five of us working in the business.

My brother was babysitting for our youngest.

He was at our house.

And we were just there all working between kitchen, KP, runners, bar, front of house, the whole thing.

And I'd say, yeah, that created a whole new dynamic and a whole new chapter with our relationship with our kids.

So the kids had never understood what I did.
