TULSA, Okla. — Nearly three months after a fire destroyed a popular bar and restaurant in Tulsa’s East Village, Lowood, and Hodges Bend owners are pushing forward to stay afloat.
There are still a lot of questions about the structure of the building on 3rd Street after the September fire that likely started in the vent hood.
WATCH: Coverage of the fire in Tulsa's East Village:
However, Chef Trevor Tack moved to a temporary kitchen and is catering under the Lowood name.
He said customers can rent out Vintage Wine Bar and host a dinner with a custom menu or order a holiday dinner meal kit. There are kits for 4-6 people or 10-12 people. It offers everything from a roasted turkey or brisket to a savory bread pudding and olive oil cake.
Tack said the community can still support them by going to their other spots—Topeka, Vintage Wine Bar and the Saturn Room.
“We kept as many people as we could employed with spots that we have open,” said Tack. “Our eyes are on the future—we have cool stuff that could be coming down the pike. Right now, we are focusing on the catering arm and we have other businesses to take care of.”
Right after the fire, the community supported the staff in a big way by donating to a GoFundMe for employees, none of the money went to the owners. People donated more than $85,000.
