What are you actual hours though? I have been there three times in the last couple months and the place is always closed, so I just stopped going. I miss your pizza!

Yeah - this is becoming a problem.

A lot of people wanted to eat last night [Saturday], and there was no food. Loyal customers becoming disappointed ones.

I want to bring some Taiwanese friends there next week for pizza, but none of them are willing to drink beer for 2 hrs on an empty stomach on the off chance that the kitchen is eventually going to open. One drink, and then I'm going to have to take them somewhere else.

As in the previous post, is it possible to post reliable kitchen hours?

The students, that I introduced the place to, stated the same....I didn't know what to say, but they have been loyal enough to hang around. They love "the outdoors" feeling. :)

It is a problem, I realize, and I apologize, but the truth is that we aren't particularly going to have a reliable kitchen schedule until sometime after Chinese New Year. For those of you who are friends and loyal customers, all I can tell you is I can't make any promises right now. We were really planning on not being open at all during this time, so, we are actually at the tail end of our soft opening and pre-beginning of our full menu real restaurant opening. Just letting you know that for the next couple of weeks what you can rely on is us being unreliable. Thanks for asking and thanks for liking our place. I hope that in the near future Tin Pan comes together as a solid provider of your fusion cuisine needs Lunch, Dinner and after hours.

I was having the same problem as the above people but insult to injury took a 200 nt cab ride there thinking I could drink more. (twice) So essentially are you saying that we should just not go there until after Chinese new year?

Same problem +1. I understand the difficulty you have in the weather, but it'll be nice if there's a number for customers to call beforehand. Is there?

It was a bummer not to see the kitchen open tonight, there were a ton of people in attendance tonight and I know of a few (myself included) who left to find food elsewhere. You have a lot of local fans out there but you gotta feed the monkey, you know what I'm saying?

And it's a bummer to be in the position where I disappoint people, and I'm sorry, so for now we are on hiatus so as not to confuse folks. We'll be back to full tilt soon, but for right now we should just make it as unconfusing as possible and we'll be sure to let you know when we are back with the goods. Our most sincere apologies for not preparing for the winter with greater forthought and forcash. Sorry, Darin

The cash was in our pockets, waiting to go into the till, but there was nothing to buy, so it went somewhere else.

And it's really not cold anymore.

So going by Axel's post your up and running for business tonight?

Not yet... (he squeals with hidden delight at the wonderment cased by his enigmatic response)

What I can say, is that we will be open very soon but in limited capacity. The bar will be open and some foods available, but not pizza. I have to go back to the States for a minute so you'll have to wait for me to get back with my shiny new headfull of killer recipes for the full deal... I'll send back reports of what I like and you can rank it to see if we try it on the specials board. The rating system will be from 1-5 with 7 being a rating suggessting it goes straight to menu. 3-4 might go special 5 will. Thanks for your anticipa....tion. D

Oh, and with all the new lights you can see your food now which is nice.

How about tonight Darin? Give me the odds

I checked tonight, it was closed. Wanted to bring four people over. O well!

Okay, here's something. On March 23rd, it being my birthday and all, we will be open for whoever likes birthday pizza. The pizza will be by the slice only, it will be of two options only, meat and veggie, and IT WILL BE FREE! It's my birthday, I like making pizza, so you can come check out the way things are for now and have a slice of birthday pie on me. If you don't like free pizza there will be beer available for purchase. That's where it is. I would love to see some hungry for pizza people. I'm not a big birthday guy, but I'd like to give yas some pie. I'm working on what flavor, but you can expect that I will do something offbeat since I'll do only two. Love yas, D

hhhhuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!

been dreaming about your pizza for months. don't even mind paying for it =p

Save a slice for me.

fa riz

Nice birthday party. Not one single person tried to pin me down and subject me to a children's song. THANKS! Too many kindy jobs to enjoy that nugget of cheer anymore. I'm always happy when I hear praise for my cooking. We are going to be open now, until Spring Scream. We will be doing pizza by the slice til then and then bring out a new Menu afterwards with a threat of the biggest burger in town. 250 grams of beef which is over a half pound of heartattack. Todays pizza will continue the popular Creole sauce and the topping options will be Chorizo sausage and Shiitake and French Horn marinated mushroom. Going with a Cajun style for awhile.

Great party. Thanks Darin. :)
