“It isn’t a stretch to see the ever-evolving, ideas-packed menu as a dialogue between two people in love who work together.” @latimesfood ❤️ @bill_addison

Getting to cheer on our restaurants is undeniably the most joyous part of our work, and last night was no exception. It was an incredibly special night in San Diego celebrating the California @michelinguide naming alongside so much immense talent. Seeing our restaurant partners get the spotlight they’ve deserved since day one will never get old.

At OpenTable, we have the privilege of hearing about our restaurant customers’ hopes and dreams, of being in the trenches with them, and when one of them gets recognized, my heart swells with pride. Our industry can be filled with heartbreaking moments, backbreaking work, and unsung heroes. So when a restaurant’s excellence is called out, it is such a meaningful moment.

For me, some of the most memorable moments last night: announcing @anna_sonenshein and @siqniqqy from @littlefish_melrosehill as the winners of Best Young Chef. The look on Anna’s face and her hand gripping my shoulder as we were posing for a photo was everything. @d.kims26 and @ryan_sohn winning the Michelin Green Award - I sat at dinner with them a year ago and they shared with me their aspiration of winning this award. And they fucking did it. @jonyao of Kato, cool and collected as always, walking up to the stage to accept two stars. When the letters KATO came on the screen, I started to cry. The night was filled with these. Congratulations again to everyone in the room.

To top off a night that was definitely worth celebrating, our @opentable crew threw ‘The Afters,’ making sure every single win was toasted to and, true to form, everyone was exceptionally well-fed. I can’t wait to continue to cheer restaurants on, and I apologize to the audience for how loud it can be (we’re just really proud!).
