Heights Corner Market has hired Chef Jeffrey Moore to run its prepared foods department and the Heights Corner Café, owner Eric Herget says.
Moore was at one point the chef for Terry’s Restaurant, the restaurant affiliated with Terry’s Finer Foods, whose location and mantle Heights Corner Market has taken up.
Moore’s grandfather is Ed Moore, a restaurateur who with former Continental Cuisine partners Paul Bash, Louis Petit and Denis Seyer was named Proprietor of the Year by the Department of Arkansas Heritage and its Arkansas Food Hall of Fame in February. Continental Cuisine was behind Restaurant Jacques & Suzanne, and members of the partnership, including Moore, went on to open a number of famed central Arkansas restaurants, among them Alouette’s, Graffiti’s and the Purple Cow.
