That’s no misspelling. Breakfast at Tifiny’s was created by Earl and Tifiny Rose, a husband-and-wife team of entrepreneurs who have been in the restaurant business for many years. They started small and have moved into larger locations in and around St. George as their business grew. Breakfast at Tifiny’s employs more than 50 people.
The Roses are parents to 17 children. They believe in giving kids a second chance. Many of their children are adopted, and some suffer from cerebral palsy, blindness, Asperger syndrome, autism, or other debilitating health problems.
