The move was on WJHG Channel 7. Unfortunately they didn't post the video on their website. :sosad:

I'm pleased that the building is being recycled, but whatever happened to Sandor himself. My wife and I ate there on one of the last nights he was open and he told us that he was going to Paris to work at the Ritz, but that he planned on returning in the next spring. Did he move to Paris permanently?

Pretty sure you can find him at Cafe Provence.

Isn't that right?

That was correct for a while, but I think he and the owner agreed to separate. It's difficult to have two executive chefs. Last we heard from his daughter, he was trying to open a restaurant in the town where she lived. He had problems with the local gov't and the building requirements. Something about the building dept giving him approval to open a restaurant, so he bought the building, only to have the rules changed in a week or two after he bought it, blah, blah, blah. I'm hoping he is making progress with it.

Ann and George Hartley Are Alive & Well On The Redneck Riviera

You may recall a darling store at Preston Center and on Lovers Lane called Ann Hartley a few years back in Dallas. Well, I am in the Redneck Riviera for the weekend, red as a lobster, body surfing (with care, sadly two people have died in the Gulf this weekend), and had the pleasure of meeting the fabulous peep behind that store, Ann and George, at a cocktail party Saturday night. Ann and George Hartley and three children left Dallas for the sunshine state a few years ago. Now he has a darling restaurant called The Seagrove MarketCafe (world famous Po-Boys and Grouper sandwiches) where we lived it up on hush puppies and fried oysters. George is opening a new restaurant down on county road 30A this June. The name: George?s. Ann shops Paris with willing tourists. Both have a new home at Alys Beach and send their love to everyone in Dallas. If you head this way, get over to the SeagroveMarketCafe and, in about 30 days, George?s.

Thanks Kitty, I was wondering what they were going to do with that place. They are moving quickly as a porch is underway. :clap:
