It also brought together the city’s best fusion restaurants in a dramatic culinary tastings evening for a good cause. The Backdrop for the Tasting was the beautiful Asian Art Museum of San Francisco. Throughout the event the chefs and restaurants selected by popular radio station KOIT showcased dramatic demonstrations of their consummate expertise in Asian Culinary skills.

LuLu personally selected the top twelve representative chefs of Asian cuisine and put together a memorable evening that raised over $10,000 for the non-profit Asian Pacific Islander Health and Wellness Center. Additional donations were raised through a silent auction of items donated by each chef. The highlight of the evening was the entrance of California Representative Leland Yee, who personally congratulated each Chef, presenting each a certificate in recognition of their efforts to support Asian culture in America.
