After operating for two and half years in Park Slope we temporarily had to close our doors to the public. Although we wanted to hang on for as long as possible, the city gave us no choice but to shut down. Ultimately we feel that this was the right decision for the health and safety of our team and the community at large.

While we hope our closure will be temporary - we know that the pain of this is real and happening now. Many of you have been generous enough to ask how you can help out and this is how: donate to this fund. One hundred percent of the proceeds from this fund will go to the hardworking members of the Fausto team. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and be well. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™
