One hell of an event Logan Oyster Socials. We got the call to fill a spot just 5 days before the competition. We were hesitant because we already had so much prep for other events that same weekend and honestly didn’t think we had the mental capacity to add on another task.

Huge shout out to Eric Blanck and Karolina Bouaphanh for convincing us to make it happen and reminding everybody to just go out there and have fun.

With so many heavy hitters competing, it was an honor just to stand alongside them in a competition for the Beat Tasting Oyster. Congratulations to all the incredible chefs and restaurants that participated. We’re grateful to have shared the stage with such an amazing group!
