Uchi Houston Sous Chef to Replace Uchiko’s Tim Dornon

Last week, we reported that Tim Dornon, chef de cuisine of Uchiko, was leaving the Uchi establishment to join Paul Qui’s newest restaurant, QUI, as a chef consultant.

Just a day after the news broke, Philip Speer, culinary director of Uchi, revealed to Eater Houston that Page Pressley, sous chef of Uchi Houston, would be taking over Dornon’s former position.

No word on the exact details of Pressley’s newest role, but Speer revealed to Eater that he is “being groomed for bigger things in the future.”
