Chef Shuffles

It's been four months since the departure of Joe Palma, but Westend Bistro has finally named itself a new chef de cuisine: Devin Bozkaya. Tom Sietsema reports that the 32-year-old chef will take over the kitchen at the Eric Ripert restaurant on September 6. Bozkaya comes to DC from a gig as head chef at the nearby Blue Rock Inn and, prior to that, sous chef at Inn at Little Washington.
