We probably should have seen this coming. I couldn't figure out why the high-power team that took over The Brewery didn't change things any more than they did. Now they're going to.
The Brewery plans makeoverDana McMahan,
Special to The Courier-Journal 9:11 a.m. EDT July 28, 2014Shawn Ward at The Brewery, which opened this past spring at 426 Baxter Ave., is going back to his roots, trading pub fare for fine dining.
"We should have done this from the beginning," says Dean Corbett, partner in the restaurant. "We've been fighting the tater tot battle. We finally said 'why don't we do what we're good at, which is fine dining?'"
With a new name, Ward 426, and a total makeover from Bittners, the restaurant will feature new American cuisine. "We're super excited to get Shawn back to where he should be," Corbett says. "In my humble opinion he is one of the top three chefs in the city and here he is doing wings and tater tots."
