It’s been one year since JP Afflick and Adam Zakharoff breathed new life into what was the very first Hog's Breath Café in Australia, right here in the Whitsundays.
Located in the heart of Airlie Beach, the business duo say they are proud of what they have achieved this year and are ready to celebrate.
On Friday 4 July 5-8pm everybody is invited to join a relaxed night with the usual laid-back atmosphere, familiar faces, and a chance to raise a glass.
Celebrate with JP and Adam as they proudly look at all they've achieved for the business over the last year.
JP owned Byron Bay Hog's Breath Café from 1997 to 2001 and when he was offered the opportunity to revamp Hog’s Breath’s first ever restaurant, he couldn't resist.
Since JP and Adam’s arrival they have returned to hospitality to basics - highlighting quality, casual dining and friendly service.
“Hospitality’s gone full circle. People want to relax, have some good service, eat well, and enjoy themselves,” JP said.
“We’re just running it like we did in 2000.”
Since taking over the Hog's Breath, the new owners have been met with praise but JP says this evening is about saying thank you to all the locals and customers who have visited in the last year.
The evening will feature live music, free nibbles, drink specials, and plenty of laughs. It also coincides with Hogs Breath Café’s 35th birthday, doubling the celebration.
Whether you’re a longtime supporter or a first-time visitor, the party is the perfect excuse to kick back, soak up some good vibes, and raise a glass to a successful year.
