We're ironing out your plans for Valentine's, Galentine's, Mardi Gras, and the Super Bowl weekend on this week's show with our guests from Iron Oven, Blue Sunday Bensalem, and Velvet Cupcakes. *Food Farms and Chefs Radio Show Episode 266
Continuing traditions is big for most families, and our first guest did so in a huge way by opening Iron Oven in Southampton, PA. Alex Nalbandian grew up learning the restaurant industry from his parent's well-known business, Rising Sun Pizzeria. Years later, Alex took over the management of his parents restaurant, furthering his familiarity with the industry, managing staff, and running a business. Nine years later, Alex was Inspired to open his own restaurant, and opened Iron Oven. Now, you can look forward to biting into their most popular item--Philly's beloved Cheesesteak, or chow down on one of their burgers, pizzas, or strombolis.
