    PACIFIC GROVE, California (KSBW) — A Pacific Grove restaurant known for its quirky ambience – a fully functioning cannery inside – and a common stop for Hollywood actresses could be forced to shut its doors and find a new home.

Happy Girl Kitchen in Pacific Grove is asking for community support to raise $200,000 in under 60 days to purchase the building it currently occupies, as it has recently been put up for sale.

“We just feel like for this size of a building that we need and for the local community has already been in relationship with, it would be a lot to actually totally uproot ourselves. We feel very rooted here,” the founder, Jordan Champagne, said.

Happy Girl Kitchen describes itself as a family business dedicated to simple, delicious, and farm-driven foods.

Those interested in supporting the cause can make donations online at Happy Girl Kitchen’s website under the fundraisers tab.
