Lots of chef changes packed into Tom Sietsema's weekly chat this week. First, the upcoming Beuchert's Saloon on Capitol Hill has snagged PS7's Andrew Markert for the top job there. Meanwhile, there's been some shuffling over at Ashok Bajaj's group of restaurants. Take a deep breath: Ed Witt is out at 701 Restaurant, Oval Room's Tony Conte is replacing him there, with Lucas Sousa as chef de cuisine, and Former Bibiana cook James Barton is moving over to Oval Room. Got it? [WaPo]
