The OGR staff had breakfast at Alexander's in York this morning. After reading all the doom and gloom on the net about new owners, we went somewhere else on Thursday and Friday. However, we decided we wanted to see for ourselves whether all the rumors (old staff fired, bad food, etc.) were true. I am pleased to report that the rumors of Alexander's demise have been greatly exaggerated.
The great staff we remember (especially Nancy!) is still there. The chef must be the same because the food was delicious, as usual. The prices are up a little from before, but they were almost giveaway prices before. Most breakfasts are in the $4 to $6 area.
One great thing that Nancy shared with us was that they now have health benefits, something the previous owner never provided.
Those of you who were beating up on the place just because of an ownership change have it all wrong. It is still a great place for breakfast at York and it will continue to be an OGR tradition.
