'-•■.:" '' i v ■' ' | STYLE ...... v ;■•■ ... ., A 'breezy' review of a change for iSON GRILL the better

Change is a peculiar thing. Story by Assistant Style & Focus Editor Alison Manser And lately for James Madison, change is as familiar as Dolley Madison. Photos by Photo Editor Alex Vessels Change is no stranger to the esteemed Steakhouse either. Newcomers might not remember the prestige of dining in the elegant Steakhouse, decorated with little more than D-hall ambiance, but fully equipped with a salad bar and steaks, a little thicker than a piece of paper. Despite the obvious sarcasm, the Steakhouse was the greatest. It was like a "real restaurant" and although JMU does have stellar dining services, let's face it, nothing on a college campus is truly like a "real restaurant" But the Steakhouse was. And as we, a table of 12 Breeze staffers, strolled into the new and improved Madison Grill, we were awestruck both by the improvements and a little teary-eyed for the loss. Those tears quickly retracted, however, as we watched trays of strawberry- topped cheesecakes pass us by. Madison Grill is a far cry from the Steakhouse — it is far better. Apparently, we were disillusioned at the time that the Steakhouse took on a God-like form because the Madison Grill is where it's at. "Where's the catch?" you ask. Of course there has to be one, but with JMU Head Chef Steve Mangan serves up a gourmet dish at the Madison Grill last Thursday evening. The newly renovated menu items like these, how can you restaurant on the fifth floor of Warren Hall replaces The Steakhouse.
