Winning 1st place at the Crabby Chef Competition at Spenger's
On October 11th, 2009 Our founder, Cristina Lau, and one of our chefs, Anna Zulaica, competed at the annual Crabby Chef Competition at Spenger’s Fresh Fish Grotto . The festival included an “Iron Chef” style culinary competition that culminated with a Crabby Chef being chosen. Cristina and Anna, two young foodies with no culinary degrees, competed against a line of restaurants, a culinary school and a catering company and proudly brought home first place on their first try. That's says something about Berkeley's Kitchen.
