Tantalized by the "crazy" "rumor" that Snack published this morning, I dropped Alinea wunderchef Grant Achatz (rhymes with "rackets") a line. "Sorry to be the pestering reporter," I wrote, and went on to ask if he would like to confirm or deny this all-too-exciting whisper of an alleged development. Ding! Seventeen minutes later, a reply from the man himself in my inbox. Should we reserve space for the reservations line on our speed dial? Achatz tells us, after the jump.
"Not opening in New York anytime in the near future."
Hot damn! Er…on second thought, it looks like we’re exactly where we started.
