Endings and Beginnings

What an amazing 4 years we have had. GourMelt has changed our lives in so many ways. We have been blessed to have such a fantastic business and to have met so many great people along the way. We loved every minute of it. There was never a dull moment. We felt every emotion: happiness, sadness, stress, anticipation, excitement, drama, fear, exhilaration, the full gamut. Jessie and I will certainly have stories to tell our grandchildren about the time we ran a food truck. But nothing lasts forever. The intention of the truck was always to get a foot in the door to the restaurant industry, to learn and to grow. We are extremely proud of what we accomplished with GourMelt. We feel that our years with the truck have given us so much valuable experience but it is time to move on. For a while, we thought about running Two Chicks and the GourMelt truck at the same time, but in reality it just wouldn't be good for either business. We are the type of women want to focus on putting everything we have into our projects. We put our hearts and souls into GourMelt for almost 4 years. It became the center of our worlds. Now we want to put that same effort into Two Chicks. There are some selfish reasons behind it as well (such as air conditioning, space, hours and restrooms). We feel that it's time to retire the food truck and graduate to the brick and mortar world. We hope you will support us in this decision and come on in to the restaurant, where we will be everyday just like before with the GourMelt menu and more. The Two Chicks from GourMelt: still slinging cheese, still making delicious comfort food, just in a larger, permanent space.

Thank you so much for the years of support and encouragement. We are lucky to have such wonderful and loyal customers. We love you, Reno. Come see us at Two Chicks, open daily from 6:00am - 2:00 pm.
