Did Grant Achatz quit Alinea? No but over the weekend, someone posted on Facebook that he did. The acclaimed chef tweeted, "Um...I'm still here. Clearly someone in the group was drinking 2 much & got their Chicago chefs confused." The post appeared on sommelier Francois Chartier's page for his cookbook, Taste Buds and Molecules. He's since removed the gaffe. Glad we saw it before it got dinged. [Twitter]
