🦺 Update: Monument signs are finally IN and can be viewed from NC-54! For those who are wondering, #BoxyardRTP is conveniently located in the @FrontierRTP Innovation District - home to startups and ideas alike. Once an old @ibm campus, @frontierrtp has built an entrepreneurial community where folks can connect and grow on and off the clock. With Boxyard, the mission remains the same. We’re providing space that blurs boundaries to leave room for growth and innovation of all shapes and sizes. And for the first since 1959, #smallbiz emerging from NC’s hospitality industry will now join @TheRTP and its 300+ companies.💡

🤝 Wondering how Julie and Lew became business p

🤝 Wondering how Julie and Lew became business partners? They actually met through Julie’s brother, Jim, and then they decided to open Bottle Rev Chapel Hill. Lew knows beer, and Julie knows wine, so it ended up being the perfect #biz match!⁠
⁠
🙋🏼‍♀️ About Julie: She’s active in animal rescue and competes in Ironman triathlons. She’s been around the country & to the other end of the globe while working as a Senior Clinical Strategist for 17 years. She’s a Certified Wine Specialist (this test is known for being hard to pass), so you can definitely come to her with all your questions! 🍷⁠
⁠
🙋🏼‍♂️ About Lew: He’s a former commander in the U.S. Army and is still connected to the veteran community in Chapel Hill. As a runner himself, Lew is active at the Bottle Rev running club as well as other run clubs in the area. He also kicks back for trivia, which is something that he runs at their current location as well. Lew plans on being involved in these at Boxyard too! Oh yea, we also heard that lew keeps a secret stash of collectible beers for himself. 🍻⁠
⁠
👏 Julie & Lew operate in the same way as #biz partners. As Julie says, “when I have a good idea, I pursue it. Life is too short to live with the regret of ‘what if I had…’. my business partner, Lew, operates the same way. We are both energetic, positive and driven.” What makes them smile? Acts of generosity, people smiling and laughing, and people coming together to help each other and create joy.⁠

😉 The only kind of box-o-wine you’ll be getting here is @rtpuncorked!

‼️Look forward to an excellent selection with a focus on family estate wines. #keepingitinthefamily ⠀
⁠⠀
🍇 What is Julie passionate about? “Wine! The care with which it is made, the subtle nuances from grape to grape, vintage to vintage, vineyard to vineyard, the impact each taste makes.”

🍺 On the other hand, Lew, a beer guy, is knowledge-packed and can still point you to the right direction, taste, and node.
⁠⠀
🍷 With 16+ wines by the glass and 200+ bottles, you can find your favorite here. Grab your pals, family, dates, or bring yourself and try some new things!⁠⠀

👥 Julie & Lew, here to bring wine on tap for you! Meet Julie Paddison and Lew Hendricks this week: the co-owners of @RTPUncorked!⁠
⁠
🤝 In addition to @RTPUncorked, Julie & Lew are also co-owners of Bottle Rev Chapel Hill! There, the two have built a community for wine, beer, and cider enthusiasts alike. On TAP of 400 speciality wines featured, the two #biz partners have hosted a series of regular events (pre-COVID). ⁠
⁠
🍷 So what will be the focus of @RTPUncorked? All things WINE. On tap, by the bottle, they got it.⁠ ⁠
⁠
🗓️ Julie & Lew plan on hosting community events such as wine tastings, wine 101, wine dinners, and even partnering with other Boxyard RTP vendors for run club and trivia nights!⁠
⁠
😌 Expect a unique and cozy space for gathering when you step into @RTPUncorked, a place that will feel like it's your own wine shop. ⁠
⁠⁠
Stay tuned this week to hear more about Julie & Lew!⁠

@ncbulkogi in Joe's words: ⁠
⁠
"My nickname growing up was 'Big Panda'. It was a term of endearment that was given to me by my friends growing up that stuck with me through my time as a youth pastor.⁠
⁠
I want to think that people find me approachable and someone they can feel comfortable around and trustworthy, just like Panda's appearance. I would like to believe that I am someone that people would want to share even a small sliver of their lives with.⁠
⁠
I am and have always been about people. I love hearing people's stories and connecting them through the stories of their lives. I think food plays huge part of everyone's story. Of course I think we serve delicious Korean BBQ, but I am more excited that I get to share "my version" of Korean BBQ. My story. I get to share my story of growing up as a second generation Korean American and what I grew up eating - a fusion of multiple cultures (Korean, American, Chicagoan, etc.).⁠"⁠
⁠
Pictured is Joe with co-owners and visionaries of @ncbulkogi, all who have been involved in his youth ministry and all who have remarkable stories of their own. ⁠

🏗️ “Having a shipping container restaurant

🏗️ “Having a shipping container restaurant can help us provide a unique experience,” Joe explains. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
🚚 “Because we normally work out of a food truck, there are a lot of limitations of what we can do. Boxyard will allow us to expand our creativity.” ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
🥣 He and his team plan to include a “create your own Korean BBQ bowl” concept, empowering visitors to try something new each time they visit and allowing them to put their own spin on a dish (though we always recommend adding a fried egg on top 🥚). ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
💡 This idea of customization has been in the works for the last couple of years and is finally coming to fruition with @ncbulkogi's shipping container space. In addition, you can expect menu items specific to Boxyard and collaborations between @ncbulkogi's creative neighbors (which is what Joe's most excited about). ⁠⠀
