Top Chef John Tesar Leaves Orange County Restaurant After Union Issue | Eater LA
"In response to the incident, the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort & Spa said it has "zero tolerance for violence of any kind," noted that Tesar was an "independent contractor providing consulting services," and initially said it would be "examining appropriate next steps." The hotel later announced that it and Tesar "mutually agreed to end their relationship, effective immediately," added that the restaurant at the hotel remains open and plans to rebrand with a new upscale concept in late 2023, and had previously been told by Tesar that he would remain away from the property "until the strike is over." - Farley Elliott
