8407 Kitchen Bar to Offer Special New Year's Eve Menu

The popular Silver Spring restaurant will create a "pop up" menu with a new chef, the Washington Post reports.

Approaching the holidays sans head chef may have forced 8407 Kitchen Bar to get creative, the Washington Post reports.  Jerry Trise, proprietor of a food truck Chef Driven and former executive chef at Yin Yankee in Annapolis, will prepare a four-course meal for New Year's Eve revelers with prices ranging from $65 to $100 a person, depending on the time of the meal and whether wine is included.

8407 Kitchen Bar Hunting for New Top Chef

The executive chef was fired, Bethesda magazine reports.

If the lamb Bolognese at 8407 Kitchen Bar doesn't taste quite the same these days, it's because the restaurant has gotten rid of its executive chef, Bethesda magazine reports.  Pedro Matamoros rose to prominance in the region while working for Tabard Inn in the District before owning Nicaro restaurant in Silver Spring. At 8407, his speciality was the lamb and a house-made charcuterie, the magazine reports.  Matamoros told Bethesda that he was fired earlier this month by the restaurant's owner Theo Margas, who said the chef was difficult to work with, according to Matamoros. 8407's menu will remain the same until a new top chef arrives.
