Help our team at Lev!

Hi,
This is Yen & Ben of Lev Kitchen.
I am sure you guys would have known by now - be it from the news or our social pages...

We got a second electrical fire in our restaurant within 2 months. Our first fire happened in mid-December, in the ceiling. After a thorough inspection by electricians and upon consultation with the city's electrical inspector, we were cleared to reopen.

40 days later, a second fire occurred within our walls with virtually the same characteristics as the first fire, which points to a large issue with the electrical service in the building.

We are now working with property owners to get to the bottom of it. In the meantime, we will be indefinitely closed again.

Our biggest concern at this point is our team and our ability to keep this wonderful team together as we sort through this muddy situation.

We are putting together this GoFundMe to cover our team's living expenses and bills. Unfortunately, insurance does not cover the hourly wages that would have been incurred. 100% of this fund would be distributed to our team.

A little goes a long way. Please help us keep the friendly faces that have been serving you and wrapping up your Malawachs with love.

Thank you.

Lots of love,
Yen & Ben
