Craig LaBan heads to West Chester for an intimate dinner at the chef’s table in the Northbrook MarketPlace.

Tellez and Boone, who took over Northbrook in the summer with their wives, pastry chef Leslie Tellez and catering director Christine Boone, come to this outpost outside Unionville with an impressive pedigree, including stints for both at Charlie Trotter’s in Chicago (where Tellez was chef de cuisine) and, most recently, Striped Bass. Their food is gorgeously presented, inventively tuned to seasonal ingredients, and, though I had my quibbles, it was on the whole a fair nine-course bargain for $75 a person.
