Here's former New York Times restaurant critic Frank Bruni on Umami Burger empire builder Adam Fleischman. Hit it Bruni: "Just five years ago, Adam Fleischman was in a two-bedroom rental with his wife and their year-old son... Today he owns two houses here, one with six bedrooms and a makeshift vineyard out back. He said that he's toying with the idea of a third in London." One thing not mentioned: The $20 million Umami raised back in February. [NYT]
