Pastry chefs competed on Friday with these 5th anniversary SF Chefs cakes. This one was from the Awahnee Inn in Yosemite.

Another SF Chefs has come and gone, and things wrapped up Sunday in Union Square with a third day of the Grand Tasting tent and a Negroni version of the annual Pimp Cup competition at Jasper's Corner Tap + Kitchen. All told, the Bay Area's chefs, bartenders, winos, and food fans came out for a festive, if slightly quieter fifth installment of the fest, and a good time was had by all.
We have a collection of photo highlights of bites, beverages, and celebs, primarily from Thursday night's Bar Bites party at the Westin St. Francis, and Friday's opening night of the tasting tent. Check out their Facebook page for more in the days to come.
