The Risotto Challenge last night was a huge success! As first time cook-off organizers, we could not have been happier with the tremendous turnout and the culinary vision and skill of our 17 amazing contestants. Thanks to everyone who came out, our judges, Loki Lounge, and our sponsors for making the event possible! And an EXTRA BIG THANKS to BARCADE for generously donating a $100 Gift Certificate for our Grand Prize, taken home by winners David Roderick and Shana Wright for their Scarborough Fare risotto.
