Perhaps you've noticed something missing from the Renaissance Sausage truck on Sundays at Headhouse? That something is Bret Cavanaugh, who one month ago, left the fresh-local forcemeat business he started with longtime buddy Dan Semko back in April. Semko, who's kept on truckin', confirms Cavanaugh's departure, but won't say anything more. (We'll update if he does.) Fortunately, all reports indicate Renaissance's sausage is still the best in town.

The food biz is unforgiving to any sort of personal relationship.  I'm sure we could rattle off a few dozen excellent restaurants that suffered similar breakdowns.

Oh no! It's so sad when friends part ways...
