Chef Landon Thompson leaves Ziba's Wine Bar
Posted by Besha Rodell @BeshaRodell on Sat, Jul 31, 2010 at 11:14 AM
I was just contacted by Landon Thompson, who delivered the sad news that he is no longer the chef at Ziba's Wine Bar in Grant Park. I had contacted Ziba's last week (while in the process of working on an upcoming story about chefs worth watching) to make sure Thompson was still at the restaurant and that he had no plans to move on. I got an enthused response from the owner assuring me that Thompson was at Ziba's for the long term. Then last night came the email from Thompson himself saying that, as of yesterday afternoon, he was no longer the executive chef. He wrote that it was "a very long, strange story," but gave no other details.
