A few have been featured on TV shows such as NINE-TEN’s Jason Knibb on Iron Chef and Herringbone’s Brian Malarkey on Top Chef. San Diego chefs are active in social media, show genuine concern for the environment as well as customers, and often work together to promote charitable causes. Locally-sourced, farm-to-table, organic and sustainable are buzz words you see on menus, but it’s not just hype. San Diego is not just about fish tacos (though eat as many as you can while visiting) and you don’t always need to check your flip flops at the door to enjoy a meal of a lifetime. The culinary scene is hot and easily rivals that of any major metropolitan city. Don’t be fooled by San Diego’s casual vibe.
