FLATIRON—While we're waiting on a comment from Yeo, multiple reliable sources say that Patricia Yeo has been dismissed at Sapa, the restaurant she opened with Brian Matzkow in 2004. Dear Eater: "I just heard that the chef Patricia Yeo has been fired by Sapa. God knows she was never around in the past 6 months" Indeed, Yeo has been busy on the remake of Monkey Bar, but she was made Partner and Sapa in 2005, which would make the departure now dicey. UPDATE: Per Yeo, "we parted amicably. I'll be focusing on Monkey Bar." [EaterWire]
