Last week Grub Street mentioned that Scott Swiderski had hung it up at The Corner, the Midtown Village kitchen he presided over since it’s mid-December opening, following his 12-year run as the top toque at Stephen Starr’s Buddakan. Now comes word that Swiderski isn’t venturing too far for his next gig; it’s just five blocks away! He will head the kitchen as Executive Chef at Serafina’s forthcoming Philly outpost at 10 Rittenhouse Square at 18th and Sansom, which is slated for a spring opening, Philly Chit Chat’s HughE Dillon reports. Based on his recent activity, we can help but wonder just how long he intends to stick around at this job? [Philly Chit Chat]
