Guest Chef

Every couple months we invite a local "celebrity" chef to entertain roughly 120 customers with a 4-course meal prepared with a little help from our dedicated culinary students.

Oaklandnorth.net (a project of the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism) covered our September, 2009 event where Kitchen of Champions students had the opportunity to train with Matt Colgan, head chef at Rockridge’s À Côté French-Italian restaurant.

In this video you will meet Serina Elliott, a Kitchen of Champions student from North Oakland’s Golden Gate neighborhood. Just four weeks into her program, Elliott aspires to one day become “a Food Network star.” She has since maintained an A average in Laney College's culinary program.
