Every once in a while, I end up working on a project where I look around at the people I’m working with, and think “how did I sneak in here, and when are they going to find out I’m an impostor?”  This is one of those projects.

This collaborative six course dinner is a virtual who’s who of up and coming San Francisco chefs.  Over the six courses, these chefs will be refracting Japanese flavors through the lens of San Francisco food, putting their own personal spin on classic, and not so classic dishes. Each course will be paired with either wine, beer, sake or a cocktail from some of the most exciting drink slingers in town (plus me.)

For my part, I’m working on some very exciting beer pairings for the occasion, along with some of my homemade sodas, for those who want something a little less boozy.

Want a peek at the future of San Francisco restaurants with a Japanese twist? Come join us at the CCA for an unforgettable dinner for a great cause.
