Welcome to It City, where the population of celebrity chefs is growing with every passing day.

Sean Brock left Nashville to win a James Beard award and returned last year to install a copy of his Charleston restaurant Husk. Jonathan Waxman just opened Adele's in the Gulch after years of success in New York and California. Maneet Chauhan spent years shuttling between acclaimed restaurants in Chicago and New York before landing here to open Chauhan Ale & Masala House next month. And Dale Levitski just arrived from Chicago to open Sinema in the old Melrose Theater.
