Where is Joshau Hill?
I got this e-mail from Shannon after my review of Tabrizi's appeared in the paper Sunday:
I must say that I was shocked to read that chef Joshau Hill had left Tabrizi's so soon. I had the opportunity to eat at
Tabrizi's recently and I actually got the chance to meet with Joshau. I became an instant fan. Do you have any idea as to where he is now?
Just curious.
I haven't heard anything, but...

...he's an interesting figure who keeps popping up in my work life.
First, he was executive chef at Truffles in the Belvedere when I was working on a Make Over My Meal story there.
Then he turned up at Red Fish as an owner/chef, but left in the blink of an eye, which seems to be what happened here. I could pick up the phone and call Tabrizi's, but I'd probably get a diplomatic answer, not that he quit in a huff when a customer criticized his etouffee. (Note to Mr. Hill's lawyers: Just kidding.)
Anyway, he seems to read this blog every once in awhile (see previous post) so maybe he'll let us know what he's doing now.
And no, that isn't a misspelling. He was christened Joshau, although he goes by Joshua as well.
