Dallas chef John Tesar's acclaimed Spoon Bar & Kitchen is being sold to Chanticleer Holdings, a company that has partial ownership in Hooters and operates several international locations. A press release explains that Tesar is staying on board and will help the company "expand the Spoon brand into a new, fast-casual dining concept" with multiple locations. Tesar tells Eater Dallas: "It's not selling out, because we're not changing Spoon, I'll be at Spoon." [Eater Dallas, D Magazine]
