Chef Out At Ansill; New Bookbinder's In NJ

20070530copatoo.jpgMichael Klein's Inqlings gossip column in the Inquirer tipped us off to a number of food-related items. Copa Too is officially shut down—and to be replaced by a Mexican restaurant. Meanwhile, Old Original Bookbinder's is opening a new location waaaay out in the South Jersey 'burbs: The Atlantic County town of Linwood is the lucky winner. Lastly, it turns out there's a change at Ansill. Chef Kibett Mengech stormed out after "a rather public quarrel with a manager." We miss working in restaurants, we really do.

As for the Inquirer, that giant hog that was caught in Alabama really is ginormous.
