Head Chef of French bistro Racine in London's South Kensington, Chris Hanley, has left to help set up a model for a chain of French brasseries.
Hanley is entering into a partnership with an unnamed company and would only say, "It's a new type of restaurant for them, although they already have a number of restaurants." He declined to comment on whether it was with the Galvin brothers who are rumoured to be looking into opening branded brasseries.
His position is being filled by Henrick Ritzen, former Head Chef of the Anglesea Arms gastropub in Hammersmith, London.
Henry Harris and Eric Garnier set up Racine five years ago.
