He’s been hosting fundraising events in the Bay area and gives us an update on what conditions are like in Napa/Sonoma and what we can do to help those in need…
There’s a huge fundraiser coming up next week before American Thanksgiving called ChefsGiving… and all the restaurants will be donating portions of their take.
I’m hoping Vancouver’s culinary teams would consider doing the same.

Chef Kristian Eligh
Kristian Eligh. Browns Social House
Kristian went from being the right-hand guy for Chef David Hawksworth and 5-star dining to being the Culinary Development Chef at the ever-expanding Browns SocialHouse Group.
One job required focused exacting fine dining and the other demanded consistent menu choices across 60 plus restaurants and 60 plus chefs/kitchens.
Both tough jobs. That’s why He’s the Guy!!
Kristian takes us through what is required for that many culinary teams to get it right…the first time.
And what he’s brought to the menu that was a hit from day one.
He also has the best hair in food. No. Not in food but in the food world! Sorry!
