It’s where the mornings from scratch tagline came from. And the reality is we’re building those right now in Tennessee. So — and the first ones tend to be a little bit more expensive until you get some efficiencies and optimize what you’re doing. So what we will ultimately be building these things for, and what we talked about a year or so ago when we took over Keke’s, and where the first few will end up, could be slightly different. So you may see us investing a couple of hundred thousand dollars more into the first ones until we optimize the buildout into the future.
Unidentified Analyst: Great. Thanks. I’ll pass it back.
Robert Verostek: Thank you.
Operator: Thank you. Next question comes from the line of Andrew Wolf with CL King. Please go ahead.
Andrew Wolf: Thank you. I just wanted to follow up on the cadence, the monthly cadence on the same-store sales during quarter and into October. I don’t know if you would want to give specifics. I know last quarter you said July was above, a little above — somewhat above 3%. So I don’t know if you’d be specific. And if you can’t be specific, could you give us at least a sense of which month in the quarter between August and September, sort of had more of the deceleration, so we could sort of back into where you might be trending now?
Robert Verostek: Yeah. Andrew, certainly. So generally, we wouldn’t be giving monthly same restaurant sales, so to try to pin to your — the second part of that, it really did slow into the kind of mid to the back part of August, second half of August. And then that perpetuated into September. So again, July was better than August, which was better than September. So that real — that cadence really kind of devolved over the course of the quarter, right? I hate to say that. And we looked at — and again, I did say that October sequentially declined from September. So we looked to kind of turn that with all of these different initiatives that we’ve discussed over the course of this Q&A.
Andrew Wolf: Okay. And just — well, I guess it’d be — I’ll just try it one more time. Is October — was October’s decline as severe as coming outta July into the last two months of the year? Or as from late August?
Robert Verostek: Yeah. I’m looking at Curt and Michael to try to get that, and it’s just — it is — again, I am not sure how to talk about that. We’ll give updates on the next call on that, Andrew. Not trying to be cagey, but again, trying to live within what our typical practices are with these numbers, so.
Andrew Wolf: Got it. All right. Well, thank you.
Robert Verostek: Thanks Andrew.
Operator: Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. I would like to turn the floor back over to Curt Nichols for closing comments.
End of Q&A:
Curt Nichols: Thank you. I’d like to thank everyone for joining us on today’s call. We look forward to our next earnings conference call in February when we will discuss our fourth quarter 2023 results. Thank you all and have a great evening.
Operator: Thank you. This concludes today’s teleconference. You may disconnect your lines at this time. Thank you for your participation.
