Kent Rathbun’s New Restaurant: Update

As Sarah said, Kent is opening a new restaurant concept. As Robert Wilonsky said, Kent will “be opening a new restaurant in Preston Center, next door to Shannon Wynne’s Flying Fish in the space formerly occupied by Carrabba’s.” I’m here to say that first, the Carrabba’s space was operating as Zea’s when the real estate became available, and second, Kent and company are eventually going to take over most of the Zea’s WoodFire Grill locations and retool them as a yet-to-be named Rathbun concept based on blue-plate-special-style cooking.

Nancy,

Any news on how Ken is feeling after his hip fracture?

I thought there was only 1 other Zea’s, located in Plano

Kent is feeling a lot better. (Hip break) Long recovery, but he is a trooper and already up and around.
We appreciate all the support everyone has given!!!!

Has anyone eaten at this new restaurant yet? I saw in Friday’s GuideLive (2/20/2009) that it’s now open.
