Another week down in Alexandria. This week, some of the top stories were restaurant related.
One of the bigger stories was BRABO Brasserie at 1600 King Street getting replaced with Midwest breakfast/brunch restaurant chain HomeGrown: A Daytime Eatery. There was some contention over whether or not Kansas counts as “mid-west” and whether or not sweet potatoes are appropriate materials for pancakes. On the latter part, at least, the only way to answer that will be to try it when HomeGrown moves in.
