NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - January 29, 2009) - El Parador Café, founded in 1959, is
celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The restaurant is the oldest
Mexican dining establishment in New York City, and is a fixture on the NY
dining circuit. José Alex Alejandro, the restaurant's owner and Maitre D',
has big plans for the restaurant in 2009 and beyond.
"We are building on our past accomplishments, excellent reputation and
devoted patrons, rather than simply relying on them," commented Mr.
Alejandro. "We are going to increase the news and excitement level even
further. We will show everyone that, while we know that we are fortunate
to have been this successful for so long, that we are preparing for another
50 years of delicious dining, celebration and fantasticò."
Among other planned programs, the restaurant will host a number of special
Mexican-themed events, as well as launching an "El Paradorian"/VIP (Very
Important Patron) effort, throughout 2009.
About El Parador Café
El Parador Café was established in 1959 and is the oldest Mexican
restaurant in New York City. Respected as having the best Margaritas by The
New York Press and the best Ceviche by The New York Times, Carlos Jacott
launched and nurtured the original establishment, first located on 2nd
Avenue and 31st Street.
While Carlos was deemed Maitre D' par excellence, he also made his mark as
an all-time great restaurateur. He sold his successful enterprise to Manuel
Alejandro in 1990. The torch has been passed to Manny's son, Alex, a 1994
graduate of The French Culinary Institute, who continues to grow the
restaurant's following by offering an excellent menu, world class bar &
lounge and warm atmosphere.
El Parador is dedicated to culture, care, and warmth. Many of our customers
met each other and have held their most intimate gatherings here.
We're El Parador, the most accommodating restaurant in New York. The answer
is yes. What's your question?
