John & Karen Shields leaving Town House!

So if you haven’t made the trip to Chilhowie, VA… too late!

(Suddenly, I really can’t believe my good fortune to dine at both el Bulli and Town House last year.)

The gracious announcement from the restaurant is here: http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?llr=pghurrcab&v=001E6oef0cghO_tnfQb5Aa1vG4UNeofEB2h8xUJy4trxXwBHBnyCp5vsdMyAMWMfUw87YgcrSdN4suHpt6O8eo6eQvKOZCIIGxhnDt2PCxGVtQ%3D

Not reopening this season - future plans up in the air.

Good news for Philly, assuming they open a place here.

It’s always tough to open a restaurant around a chef if they are not partners.
