In other news, renowned chef Jose Garces opened his first restaurant on the Main Line Tuesday morning. The restaurant crew carried a 5-foot long burrito on a wooden plank as a crowd gathered around a table outside of his new Mexican restaurant, Buena Onda, in Radnor Township. More than two dozen guests gathered around the table to welcome Garces. Garces is the 2009 winner of the James Beard Foundation’s prestigious “Best Chef Mid Atlantic” award. He also holds the title, “Iron Chef” and appears regularly on the food network’s hit, “Iron Chef America.” Garces signified the opening of his new restaurant, as he chopped the burrito in half at 228 North Radnor Chester Road.
