Restaurant partners Tony Foreman and chef Cindy Wolf have parted ways, splitting their portfolio of iconic Baltimore-area restaurants.

Wolf will now focus on operating the fine-dining restaurant Charleston solo under the new Chef Cindy Wolf brand, according to a statement from the former Foreman-Wolf partnership Wednesday.

“My concentration has and always will be on making Charleston one of the best restaurants in the country,” said Wolf.

“At the same time, I’m equally committed to our restaurant family — teaching and hopefully inspiring them, providing growth opportunities, and creating an environment of respect for each other and our guests,” she said in the statement.

Foreman’s new brand Tony Foreman+Co. will operate his latest venture The Duchess, along with Cinghiale, Petit Louis Bistro, Johnny’s and The Milton Inn. Tony Foreman+Co. “will continue to provide operational and marketing support to Charleston,” the statement said.

The partnership’s two liquor stores, Bin 604 Wine & Spirits and Bin 201 Wine & Spirits, will also be under the Tony Foreman+Co. brand. Personnel and restaurant operations won’t be affected by the split, according to the restaurateurs.

“Because the best things in life evolve, this evolution of our partnership is a natural one,” Foreman said in the release.

“It allows both Cindy and me to do what we do best and pursue our individual ambitions for exploring and creating superior experiences for those who have come to know and trust us,” he added.
