Thanks for your great shout-out about DC Central Kitchen’s Capital Food Fight on November 11. It WILL be really hot this year–the best line-up ever.
Breaking news–Bobby Varua stepped down as a Battling Chef and Bryan Voltaggio from Volt will be stepping up! That means we’ll have TWO current Top Chef contestants on stage. How cool is that?
