And to think, David Chang was just supping there! Now another New York chef, Seamus Mullen (late of Boqueria, the other Boqueria, and Food Network's The Next Iron Chef), is headed to Toro. Mullen, who's originally from Vermont, will be in the kitchen this Monday to celebrate the restaurant's fifth anniversary. And he'll be whipping up a special menu, which you can see below. Oh, and FYI: Reservations won't be taken.
