Hot Floridian Chef Makes a Move to Chicago
It totally sucks that VTK's closing at the end of the year, but an Ultimate Insider dropped a dime in the inbox that should put a smile on folks' faces:
"Chef David Carrier who (owned) Avenue Sea Restaurant in Apalachicola, Fla., and who was Grant Achatz's sous (chef) at Trio and also an alum of French Laundry, is opening a spot in Lincoln Park next week. One of Chicago's finest will be helping him in da kitchen too. Juicy."
Begged my source to get me more deets, but no go. So, in the meantime, the questions that remain about this mysterious resto:
The name?!
The location?!
And the chef who's helping him in the kitchen?!
My guess for incoming chef would be former Pops for Champagne chef Andrew Brochu, who left in October and is also an alum of Achatz's famed Alinea restaurant.
We'll see what happens next week!
