George's in the Grove has been sold

Georges Farge sold Georges in the Grove (3145 Commodore Plaza). The name will stay the same, the menu will change a bit.

Georges plans to stay on for a little while, maybe for three months, to help the new owners out, but it is official. He was offered a great price and couldn't pass it up.

It's no secret that Georges has been spending most of his time these days at his new South Miami location (which seems to be the case with all the customers, too).

I remember when they were first opening, Georges, the showman, was so happy when his microphone arrived. I told him, "Georges, you don't even have the walls painted yet and your mic is here?" He smiled, turned it on and proceeded to do his thing.

He held court outside on the sidewalk for months as the new place was taking shape. People would just stop by, visit and enjoy his company, even out on the sidewalk. He is known for first owning Le Bouchon du Grove on Main Highway and then George's. He'll be missed around here.
