Some relatively off-the-radar places on that list.
Only LA reference I saw:
Best Chef: California
- Geoff Davis, Burdell, Oakland, CA
- Rogelio Garcia, Auro, Calistoga, CA
- Lord Maynard Llera, Kuya Lord, Los Angeles, CA
- Tara Monsod, Animae, San Diego, CA
- Buu “Billy” Ngo, Kru, Sacramento, CA
I would agree insofar as the chef at Kuya Lord is good.
