Wondering what’s with the black, purple and gold "Opening Soon" sign in front of the former Galileo’s Garden Banquet Centre at
JUST THE FACTS:
• Express Restaurant co-owner and chef Santino Petrone, co-owner Sunny Kumar, chef Sonam Benedetti and Raman Thaper are reopening Galileo’s Garden Banquet Centre with Express fare.
• They purchased Galileo’s Garden in May after the banquet centre closed its doors about five years ago, having been in business for more than 20 years.
• The building has been repainted and its roof and parking lot have been fixed and patched up.
• The interior is currently under renovation.
• Petrone says Galileo’s Garden had a great reputation and hosted a number of special events for many over the years.
• “We just thought, ‘Why not keep it (the name) and run with it?’” he said, adding the new banquet centre is hoped to open in the fall/winter and will accommodate about 400 people. “It will be Galileo’s Garden, but will feature all of the Express’ flavours. We’re really looking forward to opening and serving the community.”
