    Kevin Pomplun, New Chef at Thor, Now the Old Chef at Thor Thor’s hammer has come down on Kevin Pomplun, the young chef who was hired last fall to replace Kurt Guttenbrunner at the swanky restaurant at the Hotel on Rivington.

We suspect the unexplained departure has something to do with the absolute lack of buzz or interest in Pomplun’s modern American menu.
