Chef Cliff Vogelsberg has moved from Solas in Glenwood South to Winston's Grille in North Raleigh, according to a press release sent out today.

Vogelsberg was the opening chef at Solas, which opened in 2008, and has worked there ever since. He previously worked across the street at Sullivan's Steakhouse.

The press release from Winston's Grille had this to say about Vogelsberg: "We are all very excited about his extensive experience and ability. He has been a part of many of  Raleigh's most esteemed restaurants and is very well known in the area for his culinary achievements. We are confident that Chef Cliff will be a great addition."

No word on who the next executive chef is at Solas although I have left a message for the owner. I'll let you know as soon as I find out.
