Go get seconds of Pierino Jermonti’s luscious caramel cheesecake creme brulee while you still can. T. Cook’s executive pastry chef, who’s been at the restaurant since 1996, is on his way out. Today marks his last day on the property.

“It’s bittersweet for us,” she says, “but we’re very excited for him, and he was looking forward to a new challenge.”
