John Tesar, former chef at Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek and a recent 2009 James Beard award semifinalist for Best Chef Southwest, has accepted the position as executive chef of Fishtail by David Burke. In addition, Tesar will work closely with Burke on future projects. “While it is difficult to leave Dallas and all the friends I have made here within the culinary-conscious media I feel strongly this position flexes my passion and ability as a seafood chef.”
Fishtail by David Burke www.fishtaildb.com is an innovative seafood concept on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Located in a historic townhouse the bi-level eatery combines casual late night dining in the ground floor oyster bar with traditional seating in the main second floor dining room. “I love the model David (Burke) has created and I’ve known and admired David’s work for years. He’s inventive, endlessly creative and a smart restaurateur,” says Tesar
Tesar has many scheduled appearances in Dallas including Chef Tesar’s Burgers and Burgundy on Sunday March 22nd and Share our Strength’s Taste of the Nation Dallas on Sunday, May 17th.

Good for him. Seems odd that the press release would come from him rather than David Burke. Looks like there was chatter about this yesterday in NY: http://nymag.com/daily/food/2009/02/s...
