Mamma Mia!

With Thanksgiving on the horizon and families gathering around their tables, we wanted to share what we’re thankful for: the weather finally cooling off; those spectacular fall sunsets we get to watch from the office (thanks, time change and thanks, Batture); and that we’re not the ones digging through City Hall’s couch cushions looking for $160 million.
But more than anything, we’re thankful for this community. So here’s to y’all, for showing up, for caring, and for believing in what we’re building down here at ben + burka. Pass the champagne, the coffee, or whatever’s closest. We’re grateful to have you at the table.
