    Thanks, Ronnie. I know that ChefGrant posts on egullet from time to time. Has he had any comment to that board as to what his plans are for the new restaurant?

    No, no word yet. I get the feeling that much of the info on this will be coming through 'official' conduits. I'm excited that he is planning to stay in Chicago. Before this story broke, I'd heard one rumor that had him going to San Diego (where I believe he's originally from).

    In case anyone's interested, Chef Achatz did weigh in on this.
