Chef Eric Wood leaves the Beverley

The former Fabarnak and Hawthorne chef signed on with the boutique hotel last spring. Now, according to a press release circulated today, he’s off to pursue new adventures, the specific nature of which are currently unclear. “Look East, as more than the sun is rising,” Wood declares in the release. “I can promise you that I’m looking forward to getting back to my roots...a love affair with the neighbourhoods and flavours of the city that I have grown to love and call my own.” Wood’s former sous chef, Binh An Nguyen, will be taking over as executive chef at the Beverley.
