Chef Justin Yu of Oxheart in Houston won southwest just not after quite a few nominations. I believe the rising star chef as well was from Houston at one point. The the lifetime award went to an older lady from Nola. Commanders lost to Berns Steakhouse for beverage program.

That's amazing for little old NOLA to have 2 of last 3 or 4 winners.

Pretty rad.

Although not sure what our beverage programs (Cure, French 75, Commanders) have to do to get a win.

Kind of crazy to think Shaya and LPG are pretty much across the street from each other and both excellent eat at the bar spots.

When is NOLA going to get its own category? Blows away the competition in the south. It's like LSU playing in the Sun Belt conference.
