UPDATED: Chef John Tesar departs Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas
DALLAS Chef John Tesar has left the employ of the Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek, says Nancy N. The publicist also called Kim. THEN she called Pegasus News. She says she was going alphabetically. A likely story, Mansion publicist! After all, "Gubbins" does come before "Nichols" or "Pierce". It's the only benefit to having a name like Gubbins. Maybe she's using a different alphabet.
Eats had a rumor about Tesar's departure earlier in the week (by Christopher Wynn, who clearly would come last in any alphabetical face-off). Looking forward to a press release with more details coming soon!
UPDATE: "The Brad" has an item up, the substance of which is off-the-record, but with the implication that Tesar will be staying in Dallas and doing his own place.

She was using a former food critic's rolodex. I'm filed under Ahole. (Can I say that, Mike?)

Changing of the guard in Hotel fashion and assembly for 2009, from street signs to airports, the Chef's of Dallas are also going to find a ketchen bare or remolded, the whole city is going though a massive make over, for the 21st century statement... DALLAS,... The Chicago of the North Texas Region...for the 21st Century.

The changing of the guard in terms of chef's is an intresting time frame to now observe, Dallas has been a food Captiol for many decades,and it will continue, while more news is to come on 56 over at Reunion, until then..A/T, Chef Boy Are Dee.

Tried to edge out some information from an insider, couldn't get much beyond "he resigned."

It is alphabetical if you are listed as "D Magazine", "Dallas Morning News", and then "Pegasus". Make like the plumbers do and change your name to AAAAPegasus.
