There’s interest in old Krystal building

There has been some interest in the old Krystal building in Plaza Shopping Center. From what I understand, a deal hasn’t been finalized with property owner Jimmy Zavogiannis. (James Clark photo)

Since it’s Christmas, it’s time to talk about how Gondola owner Jimmy Zavogiannis is a nice guy. Jimmy knows his stuff when it comes to the restaurant business.

I’ve long said, pound for pound, Gondola is the best restaurant in Warren County. And don’t ask me what the pound for pound part means.

But now I’m getting off track. My point is Jimmy also owns the building in Plaza Shopping Center which used to be Krystal. Now there’s significant interest in that building.

Word on the street is a sale is almost finalized and the place will be turned into a dance studio. OK, that’s just a little Christmas humor for you. The place will be what it used to be, a drive-thru restaurant.

I talked to one of the prospective buyers on the phone and he asked not to be identified until the ink is dry. But he did says he’s excited about a new Walgreen’s going right next door.
