These Rising Stars were specially selected from over 90 talented San Francisco Bay Area candidates who were considered via in-person tastings and interviews. "A new breed of young culinary professionals is defining the Bay Area dining scene, taking it beyond simply sourcing the best ingredients and championing the sustainability movement," said Antoinette Bruno, chief executive officer and editor-in-chief of StarChefs.com. "They are true artisans and craftspeople."
