So excited for this in Watercolor! And what Tailwagger said- hanging outside and watching the world go by will be so fun with good food!

Whew, been holding that secret in for a while.

Hot and Cold is still open through the end of the year. It's going to be a complete overhaul and sounds incredible.

I am afraid you are misinformed

Congratulations to Chan's Wine World! Coming to 30A is a wonderful move and a great place for gourmet foods and wines. I think it will be welcomed by residents and visitors as a unique kind of place in our little paradise.

Long sidewalk lunches - the best!

And what kind of food do you think they are going to serve. I hope the same they have in Destin, but I am afraid that since they are saying nothing about the food it will be what we already have on 30A....thoughts? We need something new on 30A not a remake...thoughts?

It is official!!! Yes, Chan's IS coming to SoWal. We will have TWO cheese counters, a wine bar, a restaurant (serving much of the same fare we provide at Destin and Grand Blvd.), retail wine (at Chan's fabulous pricing!!) gourmet foods and accessories. We will keep the pizzas coming and will add our own style and brand to all that we do at Watercolor. We have some very EXCITING things in store for our Watercolor location. I will be heading up the culinary aspect of the new Wine World with the help of some wonderful experts. Our goal is to become a LOCAL place, catering to the locals in every way that we can.

All that I can say is I AM THRILLED to be a part of this wonderful opportunity!! Watercolor has been supportive and gracious in helping this new venture come to fruition.

Stay tuned for updates!

Hot & Cold will close Jan. 2 and we will open as Wine World at Watercolor on Feburary 15. We will be doing remodeling during the closed time. Our Wine Bar will have it's own name...which will be determined soon.
Our goal is to created an atmosphere where everyone who walks into our doors feels like they are among family! Wine, food, relaxation, comfort, fun and enjoyment!

so what did the girl tell me that was wrong? are they closing at year end?
Firstly, this venture has been in the making for many months. St. Joe did not decide they wanted to give H&C up for a lease. They, along with Chan's, want to provide the locals with an exceptional product. The location has enormous potential which needs to be tapped by the right team. All parties involved put a lot of time and effort into this venture.

Secondly, H&C will be closing in Jan., not in Feb. We will be opening in Feb.
We hope everyone will be as excited as we are :D
