Natural Born Keller

Could a renovation or expansion be on the way for The French Laundry? A couple of years after plans for an expanded kitchen, garden, and offices at Thomas Keller's iconic restaurant came to light, the city of Yountville has approved zoning changes for the lot next door to TFL, opening up the possibility of commercial use for the first time. The plans will still need additional approval and the restaurant is mum on any changes, but expect to see more on this soon. [NVR]
