Bluehour Parts Ways with Chef de Cuisine Drew Lockett

Another cook's out of the kitchen. PortlandFood.org confirmed over the weekend that chef de cuisine Drew Lockett has parted ways with pricey Pearl District restaurant Bluehour. Lockett, who first made a name for himself at Bluehour, the flagship of local restaurateur Bruce Carey's mini-empire, jumped ship to serve as executive chef of Portland's favorite whipping boy Aquariva, only to return in 2008. Bluehour executive chef (and co-owner) Kenny Giambalvo remains; no replacement has yet been named.
