Liberty Tree (1016 H St) reached a
voluntary agreement with ANC6A, which allows its ABRA application to move forward
without protest, clearing the largest hurdle to the opening of this much-anticipated brick oven pizza and seafood venue. As part of the accord with ANC6A, Liberty Tree agreed to restrict the size and hours of its summer garden in hopes of limiting any potential impact on surrounding home owners.
Graig Glufling who helped launch the original Matchbox and learned to cook under some of Washington’s top chefs (including, Jeff Bubin at Vidalia, David Craig at the Tabard Inn, and Morou at Signatures) will be the chef at Liberty Tree.
Scott Hamilton is the owner here. He's a great guy who has had a lot of success in the past -- used to be a manager at Chef Geof's downtown. I was excited about this place before I heard about the chef. Now I really can't wait.
ReplyDeleteChef Graig is a talented dude...this is gonna be a good one
ReplyDeleteAny more specific time estimates on this? I know they were targeting late January at one point...
