We look forward to sharing this new experience with all of you and can’t wait for you guys to check out our new location in Swansea. We will continue to give everyone updates on the new opening date for the new location. We would like to take this time to Thank each and every one of you for your continued business and support. Also, a big Thank you to our staff who have remained faithful to us and helped us throughout the process. We are beyond grateful. This new journey for Luis and I is going to be awesome, and we can’t wait to share it with all of you!”
