Broomstack Kitchen & Taphouse, the popular restaurant which shares a building with the Leelanau Curling Club, has new owners. The managing partners are: Alfiero Silveri, a restaurant veteran and sommelier who managed Trattoria Stella in Traverse City for more than 10 years; Stephen Brotschul, a former boarding school teacher who once worked at The Leelanau School (and is now president of the Glen Lake Chamber of Commerce), and Maria Leggett, an adjunct professor at Northwestern Michigan College’s Culinary Institute who runs the Grand Traverse Sauce Company. The group also hired Culinary Institute alum Rose Duggan as their executive chef.
