Michael Teich Departs from Culver City's The Wallace for Unnamed Project

Just over one year from his opening stint at Culver City's The Wallace, chef Michael Teich is moving on to points unknown. The former sbe acolyte first branched out as co-owner of The Wallace last November, bringing thoughtful Cali-Italian fare to downtown Culver.

Worried locals shouldn't expect the menu to change just yet at The Wallace — the team there is intent on keeping Teich's menu around for a little while, at least. Chef de Cuisine Joel David Miller takes over the stoves there, having previously spent time at Scratch Bar under Phillip Frankland Lee.

There's no official word on where Teich will end up, but don't expect the news to stay under wraps for long.
