Brick walls, dark colors, and dim lights created the perfect atmosphere for the exclusive 2010 Standing Ovations Event, which took place at The Old Mint in San Francisco. Guests poured into the National Historic Landmark as they indulged in cocktails, a seated dinner, a thrilling awards ceremony, and a foot tapping performance by a live band.
The evening focused on the achievements of premier chefs in the Bay Area whose culinary craftsmanship truly embodies the past, present, and future of food culture in San Francisco. Honorees included food gurus like Bill Fujimoto, Bill Niman, Nancy Oakes, Charles Phan, Judy Rodgers, Warren Weber, Alice Waters, Annie Somerville, and Albert Straus.
