Winterland's chef was Vernon Morales. Thu Nov 16 23:11:27 -0800 2006 2028358 11369 Robert Lauriston 3 2028423 Jezzus! Sorry I read an article earlier today, just checked and it is the Bar Tender from Winterland now at Alembic.. sorry! Maybe you can call the Bar Tender he might know. I liked Winterland when they first opened. Went back right before they closed and it was the strangest vibe and the worst food.

I don't know if they're stilling doing that, but their website is still up: www.winterlandrestaurant.com. Fri Nov 17 00:02:08 -0800 2006 2028209 10159 Ruth Lafler 1 2028519 I've heard a recent rumor that Winterland's chef has ambitions to reopen Winterland with a different owner/investor. I have no clue how far along that ambitions has been brought to reality.
