Hello! I know it’s been a while since I rapped at ya, but that’s because things have been so darn busy! I hope you’ve been following Ian’s Pizza on State on Facebook to see the pictorial step-by-step build-out of a restaurant. If you think moving yourself is a pain, you should try an entire restaurant; it’ll give you a whole new appreciation of all the stuff you don’t need to do during Madison’s city-wide move in mid-August.

For one thing, you don’t have to wait for the fire inspector to come through and give you the okay on whether or not you can turn your oven on the morning you’re hoping to move in. Believe me, without our ovens we’d be stuck with a whole lot of raw dough. Turns out, it’s not nearly as good uncooked; who knew?

But we haven’t forgotten our friends in Milwaukee; we’ve got special things happening for them too. Our second location in MKE is being renovated right now and we hope to be open there (146 E. Juneau Ave., in the heart of Water Street) in mid-June-ish. Again, depending how construction (and the ensuing fire inspection) goes, it could be sooner, it could be later. The best way to keep track, and also to get chances to win free pizza and sweet Ian’s merch, sign up for Ian’s Pizza Milwaukee Facebook and Twitter (@IansPizzaMKE).

Been to the new space? Excited for a new place in Milwaukee? Want to discuss fire inspections or why every person moves on the same date in August in Madison? Write to 100state@ianspizza.com and holla at us… we’ll holla atchu back.
