Sure we have our favorites, but when it comes to good eating for Valley chefs and restauranteurs, what was their last and most memorable eating experience. Was it local? Out of the state? Out of the country? Here are some of their answers:
Chef Bernie Kantak, Citizen Public House
I did an omakase at Roka Akor not too long ago. German Sega put together an astounding tasting of around 18 different items which included several different types of sashimi and sushi -- many of which I've never seen before. There were Kobe short ribs and king crab with truffle butter. They're really doing some amazing things over there.
Chef Jason Alford, Roka Akor
Petite Maison. Service: impeccable. Food. Ingredients. Thought. Everything. Love the spot.
