Berkeley Bar & Grill (a bust?)

So far I haven't heard anything good about Drew
Nieporent's latest venture. If you've dined at
Berkeley Bar & Grill, please comment. Thanks.

theres alot of great chefs on the street,so drew had
his chance,why patricia willams?

FYI - Patricia Williams is already out. Replaced by
Richard Farnabe who opened Mercer Kitchen.

she should of never started,also the new chef was
pushed out of m kitchen due to 2 star work,so another
poor pick by drew.

Actually I thought the food at Mercer Kitchen was very
good when Farnabe was manning the range. Very.

During a second visit, after Farnabe's stealthy
disappearance, I was not quite as pleased. And forget
about the attitude of the staff, the darkness and the
noise level! (But I won't bore you, - see previous
posting.)

Re: "FYI - Patricia Williams is already out..."

I guess it's because we're just coming off of Pride
Weekend, but I thought for a moment (just for a moment)
there you meant the other kind of "out".

Serious Inquiry for Chef:

Why not Patricia Williams? What specifically is wrong
with her food?

she was over her head.she is not that good.i am in
the industry trust me.

(Just want you to be aware of how condescending you
sound.) There are those of us "in the industry" that
don't find it necessary to label ourselves as such -
but - dare I say it - know just as much about the food
biz as you do.

ONLY LIKE TO SPEAK THE TRUTH,THEREIS ALOT OF
WASTEDTIME INOUR INDUSTRY AND IDONT LIKE TO WASTE
TIMEOR WORDS.
