No description available.

All right. >> All right. So, good afternoon everyone. Uh, this my name is Myron Bailey. I'm here in a brand new restaurant here in Cottage Grove. Uh, we are celebrating the grand opening of Kasamia. And I just want to mention on behalf of the city of Cottage Grove, I want to thank these owners, which will be talking here in a minute, uh, for um, sharing this special moment with us and then also uh, frankly investing here in our community. So, we're pretty excited about that. I also want to thank a couple of their elected officials that are here. Uh, council member Theiti is standing next to me and our representative Wayne Johnson is standing uh right behind me to my left. So, Rosa shared with us the part of the reason uh you both or they both chose Cottage Grove for this exciting new restaurant is because you saw that the Cottage Grove community is connected to each other. So, kind of that great connection there. uh and that they have shown great support uh to the different businesses in our area. So, in other words, whether it's the city working through the local businesses and helping them out uh and the residents that are pretty excited about that. I often do say that our community is what makes Cottage Grove a special place and they are also one of our biggest assets in terms of supporting new business growth. And I'm so proud to see you choose us here in Cottage Grove because she did mention to me a little bit earlier that this is her first restaurant, right? She's got some friends here that are behind the the scenes here that are helping her out that have other restaurants, but this is her first first uh forte here in Cottage Grove. And with that, I do encourage uh everyone to check out Kasamia's Facebook page at Kasamia Restaurant and Bar for more information on how they can connect with you and to support you. So, if you're interested in finding out more, uh, please, uh, check out their Facebook page. I also will mention, just in case people that are around here from Cottage Grove for a while, the location that we're at, um, honestly, used to be the Tom Moyes location in Cottage Grove. So, it's right up 80th Street, just down from like Great Clips and the Eye Clinic and such like that. And then just to our even though you can't get through that way, but just to our uh, west here, if you will, uh, is Goodwill. So, if you're wondering where it's at, it's right up above. and they just got their new sign put in. So, their sign is up. So, please come out and support this great business.
