We will start with the Not so good news:
Chef Emily‘s time at Redlight is sadly coming to a close. While our heart feels heavy to see her go, we are grateful for her warm energy and talent that she shared with us for the greater part of this year. As a small business that has existed longer than some of our actual patrons who just reached legal drinking age, it seems like we would get used to our team coming and going, but in many cases it’s bittersweet. We wish her nothing but the best as she continues onward to Philly! Please join us by saying farewell as this is her last week with us! Sunday, October 18th will be her final brunch.
The Good News:
Later this fall our kitchen turns 3 and it somehow feels like it’s been forever yet also just a tiny blip on the Redlight timeline. With this new season ahead, we are so very excited to welcome Nicole Matta as head chef to lead our BOH team!! She has roots in one of our most favorite places in town (Kaya, of course) and you may have seen her TheKitchenHouse offering her services as well as most recently assisting Chef Emily’s dinner this past summer!
You can count on our menu favorites to stay so don’t you worry. But we hope you’ll warmly welcome Chef Nicole to Redlight! We look forward to having her carry on the strong female presence in the kitchen ❤️
