Sasha from the Oak & Iris sent an update about the cafe. They had plans to reopen this morning, but Sasha's husband, who is she says is the main workforce, got sick. They're now hoping to reopen on Wednesday and be open from 7am to 4pm, until they get the dinner how they want it. She emails:
The current owners decided to close the cafe and to re-staff most of the employees and to do some renovations. We did not find anyone to rent the cafe to YET, but are still looking.
All of this is done in order to improve 1st quality of food and make it all more delicious, more healthy with a better cook and better ingredients.
Second is to improve service. We will still take orders to go and deliver, but mostly it will be all table service. For dinner we are getting wine license and we will be offering a nice European dinners more upscale with food and service as well.
We are looking for dinner chef and we are hiring waitresses now.
To learn more, contact Sasha at whereissasha@nyc.rr.com or stop into the cafe when it reopens.
