Help me to wish this amazing daughter of mine Happy 30th!!! She said yes to helping me with my original crazy idea of opening a healthy food truck concept and been there for me along this journey bringing her wisdom, shine and pizzazz to this dream of mine even down to the bare bones hard work stuff! We’ve had quite a ride together and made so many memories along the way! She has added so much value to what we all get to experience at The Hungry Hatch today! Happy birthday Katie! 🎂🥳

POV: Cashier Transformation?
No, it’s when the food is so good you come back up to order 2 more for later!

Happens more often than even we believe!

Today a customer visited from out-of-town. They said they were at our restaurant last year. Today was their last day in town and they said couldn’t leave without stopping by again to get something!🥹🥰

Sometimes it just hits me…

I own a business in a downtown metro city where people come from all over the world.

I came up with the concept, the recipes, the menu, the systems, and the processes. I’ve had to learn how to interview, hire, schedule, train, manage employees, track inventory, place commercial orders, send contracts and invoices, pay bills, handle taxes, run payroll, find repair people, understand P&L, KPIs… and YOLO. 😅

I’ve had to figure out all the moving pieces of the restaurant, catering, and food truck events each week.

And I did it with absolutely NO experience.

I had never worked in a restaurant. I had never been in a lead role. I had never been in accounting circles. And I don’t even cook at home… shhh. 🙃

Now here we are just past year 7!

We’ve been KC Favorites winners in 2023 and 2025, selected to be in the airport, served the NFL Draft, appeared in a Missouri commercial, served so many incredible companies across KC, and we have weekly regulars who continue to show up for us. 🫶🏻

It still blows my mind that little ole’ me was given this idea in my heart so people could eat healthy, whole food. 🥰

So if you’ve got a dream, don’t let lack of knowledge stop you. Don’t let age deter you. Don’t let other people shrink your ideas.

If it’s inside you, and you care about serving others, go for it.

Even if it doesn’t go exactly the way you imagined, every step will grow you into a stronger, wiser, braver version of yourself.

We want to address an internal review we received today connected to a delivery order from May 28.

The customer shared that they chose not to eat their lunch because of something a third-party delivery driver told them about our restaurant during delivery.

Unfortunately, the customer did not have the full context. Prior to this review being posted, we had already reported an issue with this driver to the ordering platform after the driver became upset during pickup, did not follow our designated catering pickup instructions, and handled the order carelessly.

The claim the customer reported from the delivery driver about our restaurant is false and extremely damaging. Food safety, cleanliness, and customer trust are things we take very seriously.

Because this involves a third-party delivery driver and a serious false statement about our business, we are handling it through the proper channels and providing documentation, including video footage and records, to support the investigation.

We felt it was important to address this because false claims can harm a small business. We are grateful for the customers who know our standards, our care, and the work we put into every order.
