Crepe Delicious, Menlo Park Mall.

Crepe Delicious is a mall creperie serving sweet and savoury crepes, panini, salads and gelato made in-house. The franchise design team issues a fixed brand package and works directly with the contractor on every location. Our job was to fit that package into a live mall unit, under the landlord's rules, without pushing the opening date.

Menlo Park Mall is at 55 Parsonage Road in Edison and trades seven days a week. The unit sits on the second level in the food-court run, so deliveries, the strip-out and anything noisy had to fit around the centre's trading hours and its loading-dock windows.

We ran it as a single contract covering demolition, framing, drywall, millwork, electrical, plumbing and finishes, with one supervisor on site and one point of contact for both the franchisee and the landlord's construction manager.
