Re: Bim Dietrich is back with Quattro on Fourth

We were in there shortly after opening ( for Valentine's day). We talked to Bim at length and he made it very clear that this was not " his" place. While he didn't state exactly that, we got the distinct impression that he was not supposed to be there permanently- potentially brought in to train and bring things up to speed and then hand over the reins to someone else. Sounds like that's just what happened as planned....

Makes sense, Deb, until you go back and read the actual language of the original news release. Of course, who trusts a news release? :mrgreen:

No- actually it doesn't exactly:
Executive Chef Josh Hillyard and Louisville Restaurant legend Bim Deitrich have teamed up to create Quattro, a new and exciting Italian concept.


And :
Bim Dietrich has designed Quattro to appeal to guests that want to experience an exciting and fresh atmosphere, great food and great wines, within a lively and unique dining environment. An icon of the Louisville restaurant scene with past successes in Myra’s, Dietrich’s in the Crescent, Allo Spiedo, and Primo, Bim has reentered the market with Quattro as the next great experience for the Louisville restaurant scene.


From a Marketing perspective this would be called " spin" . He did design it... :mrgreen: - nobody said he owned it or was staying... :lol: ( I'm guessing this release was one of the reasons Bim kept telling us it wasn't his place- he was just working there... :? ))
