Hot Spot

Frederick’s “Top Chef” celebrates regional bounty

Hot Spot - Bryan Voltaggio began a new chapter in his hometown.

Last fall, the former “Top Chef” star shuttered 12-year-old Volt, transforming its 19th-century brownstone location into Thacher & Rye. Focusing on Mid-Atlantic cuisine made with local ingredients, the menu tempts diners with Chesapeake oysters, house-made pastas—including ravioli with goat cheese and delicata squash—and comfort foods with a spin. Think chicken and dumplings with gnudi and hedgehog mushrooms.
