Slate chef going solo in Wash West

It'll be called terra, at the Tavern on Camac.

He's calling it terra, and the space is below terra -- a quaint 40-seater with bar beneath the historic Tavern on Camac at 243 S. Camac St.

His menu will feature new-American cuisine. Samples: seared black cod with rosemary almond puree, olive oil, and red shiso; or hoe cake flat bread, with spinach, roasted red pepper, and fried egg; acorn squash hotpot, served with udon noodles, shaved duck breast, and bean sprouts; and pan-seared pork chop, done with a glazed salsify, quince salsa, and fresh horseradish jus. How about mini-Blue Moon orange ice cream floats.

Starters $8-12, entrees $18-25.
