Chef Shuffle

Former A16 Chef Opening Shop in New York City

Perhaps following in the footsteps of Nate Appleman, Christophe Hille, formerly of A16, is opening a shop and a restaurant in New York City’s East Village. They plan on creating local and sustainable takeout for the shop, says Florence Fabricant. The small restaurant will have “a farmhouse vibe.” Hille and partner Nathan Foot (previously a chef de cuisine at Myth) could have some competition in the seasonal take-out business: several such shops in New York are also planning to open this fall.
