Handke’s Cuisine, a fine-dining institution in the Brewery District, has been sold. T & L Cuisine, owned by husband and wife team Tim and Lorie Phalen, bought the restaurant this week from chef Hartmut Handke, Columbus’ only master chef certified by the American Culinary Federation.
Chef Handke is semi-retired and is no longer at the restaurant every night, Tim Phalen said. Handke will continue to teach monthly cooking classes and cook for some special dinners.
