Former Farmhouse Tavern chef Alex Molitz signs on at Geraldine in Parkdale
Geraldine already has the distinction of being Parkdale’s most enchanting place to sip a drink, and now it’s got something new going for it. Alex Molitz, the culinary wunderkind credited with turning Farmhouse Tavern into a bona fide dinner destination, was recently announced as the restaurant’s new head chef. Last we heard, Molitz had left Farmhouse and was about to start a new job with the Hinterland Winery in Prince Edward County (a gig that apparently didn’t last too long). Luckily, PEC’s loss was Parkdale’s gain. Molitz’s debut menu at Geraldine includes parsnip soup with pink peppercorns, wild mushroom pasta and other cozy fall dishes—just the stuff to pair with a bracing absinthe cocktail or two.
