Wolfgang Puck restaurant in Dallas’ Reunion Tower gets named in contest
The Wolfgang Puck-endorsed restaurant at the top of Reunion Tower that used to be Antares got its new name, which was selected via a contest, and it's yet-another set of numbers: Five-Sixty by Wolfgang Puck. Now that has some zing.
Supposedly the contest attracted "thousands of submissions". The name refers to the height of the tower. Here's a good indication of how unique and inspired it is: Seven people submitted it, and three more people had it as part of their entry.
The winning seven are: Jason Aboujeib of Dallas, Brandi Balfour of Richardson, Jeff Carrington of Dallas, Katie Gilkinson Chaumont of Dallas, Steve Heaser of Dallas, William Huckin of Dallas, and Erica Janczak of Keller. They'll get one free dinner a month for a year and a chance to meet and greet Wolfgang at the grand opening.
