Kim Alter Joins Forces with D-Patt

Kim Alter, who Alan Richman fondly calls a beast of a chef, just secured a new home at Daniel Patterson's much-anticipated (and long-delayed) Jack London Square restaurant, reports Diablo Mag's Weekly Dish. The former vet at Plate Shop with a "gourmet pedigree" that includes Manresa and Ubuntu, will be bringing "accessible North Californian cuisine" to the waterfront in mid-November, fingers crossed.
