More than half of the independently owned enterprises in the U.S. (52 percent) are small businesses with fewer than 500 employees. In New Mexico, small businesses make up 71 percent of the economic activity. As the executive director of the Santa Fe Alliance, an association that represents locally owned independent businesses in New Mexico, I can testify that reform which gives business owners a fair shake at offering health care to their employees is critical.

Son joins family business at The Pantry

Chef Michael Singley has joined his father, StanSingley, at The Pantry restaurant.

Michael is a recent graduate of the famed Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Scottsdale, Ariz. He has entered into an apprenticeship with his father “to continue learning the intricacies in running one of Santa Fe’s oldest and most successful restaurants,” an e-mail from Stan Singley said.

“Stan believes he is the eighth steward to hold the reins of The Pantry over its 62-year history of being Santa Fe’s ‘meeting place,’ ” the e-mail said. “Begun as a family restaurant by George Myers and his wife in 1948, The Pantry has enjoyed continuous operation for over 62 years and garnered many kudos and awards, continuing through today.”

Michael Singley said he has “no plans to change what everyone loves about the Pantry,” although he does plan to add new dishes, especially to the restaurant’s dinner menu.

Michael Singley will work with restaurant general manager Rocio Dominguez in assuming his duties at The Pantry.

Stan Singley, on the other hand, said he hopes the addition of his son to The Pantry team will allow him to pursue some other business interests and play a little more golf.
