Pearl on the hunt for a new chef

Word has it from sources exceedingly close to the ham bone and/or lamb shank that Pearl’s owners — the family Stein — and its executive chef, Ari Weiswasser, have parted ways. The Asian fusion king Weiswasser resigned Wednesday, with his last day coming next week. And all was supposedly quite amicable between the parties. The coolest part of that sweet, sad Pearl parting may come when Pearl's owners turn their hunt for a new master cooker into a search for an unknown. Apparently, they'll be looking for a breakout star regional chef we've never heard about. Sounds fun. Break out the chowhounds.
