It's a smaller <br />footprint so that's why we call it the Marlin Bar, it's separate from the restaurant and bar <br />concept. <br />Ichikawa: Overall, the concept is to have retail adjoining next to the bar area, and that <br />they can be served food and drink but also go into the retail area as well. <br />Okabe: Have you received the application report? <br />MINUTES - LIQUOR COMMISSION MEETING - THURSDAY, MAY 11 2025 - HILO PAGE 26 OF 63 <br />
