Robbin Haas called me recently to tell me the good news that he is opening a new spot in Hampden called Birroteca in the space formally the Mill Steakhouse at 1520 Clipper Road. The new space will serve organic, artisinal small Italian plates, Chef Robbin tells me. Currently he is seeking a General Manager and a Bar Manager who is adept in the workd of Craft Beer and whose title might be more appropriately called, Beer Geek.. Twenty-four beers are to be expected to be poured as this is a Beer-oteca, not a Vino-teca.

Chef Robbin is no stranger to the culinary world. In 1994, he Won Best New Chef at: Colony Bistro, Miami. He has worked as a top Chef in the Phillips Restaurant group and with his own restaurant consulting business. Word is a new Eastern Shore Chef will be joining him in the kitchen. Spot to open mid-September.

More soon.
