The latest chefs on the move

William Downes is the new executive chef of the Baltimore Marriott Inner Harbor at Camden Yards in Baltimore. Most recently the senior banquet chef of the Renaissance Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C., Downes’ early culinary inspiration came from the time he spent on his grandparents’ four-acre farm in Englishtown, N.J., picking figs and making jam that was sold at the family farm stand.
