In September, Turning Point opened inside The Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley, bringing something unique to the center. “It provides an offering of breakfast and brunch that we didn't have before,” says Natalia Stezenko, senior general manager of The Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley. After beginning to franchise roughly a year and a half ago, CEO of Turning Point Restaurants Kirk Ruoff says he'd been looking to open a location in the Lehigh Valley for quite some time and is excited that their offerings will round out the center by satisfying an unfulfilled niche. “We're a chef-driven menu, so we have unique breakfast and lunch dishes,” says Ruoff. “We really focus on making things to order, letting customers modify their food any way they want to.” Ruoff calls the Wilbur Skillet their most popular breakfast item, made with potatoes, crushed bacon, avocado, diced tomato, jack cheese and two eggs, and says the Pavo Cubano sandwich is popular at lunch. But customers are welcome to order either dish whenever a craving hits. “We'll make you whatever you want on the menu at any point during the day,” says Ruoff. “If you want pancakes at three o'clock, we'll make you pancakes.”
