Can it be? Two happy endings in one day? Restaurateur finds chef, the chef leaves, the chef starts a not-a-pop-up leaving old restaurant with no cook, now the first restaurant finds a new chef in a certain Jesse Barber, per the Eater report. Barber, in his private time, offers catering through the Kitchit program which means you can hire him to butcher those backyard bunnies and hens before Barnyard opens. With a few years cheffing at the Tasting Kitchen under his belt, it looks as if Barnyard will have some simple, well-executed food to go with those reclaimed tables.
