Has anyone here tried Whitney Mercilus's new Chris Shepherd restaurant One/Fifth? It's in the old Mark's building.

Wanted to hear some thoughts.

Curious to see how this works out.

Apparently its going to be 5 different types of restaurants over the next several years (hence the name, 1/5th).

Given how popular some new restaurants are... only to fizzle out in 2-3 years... can't say its all that bad of a business plan.

That's a pretty genius idea.

Andrew Zimmern was there while in town for the Super Bowl. He's a big fan apparently.

I liked Mark's. Bummer.

Interesting concept, curious how the kitchen staff can handle multiple cuisines, or I guess there will be serious turnover when they change the menu.
