 Did you know that the executive chef in the White House is a Pinay?
Which means that the one whipping up food for the most powerful man in the world is a kababayan. How cool is that?
Personally handpicked by Mrs. Laura Bush herself, Cristeta Comerford is the first woman to serve in the position. She is responsible for designing and executing menus for state dinners, social events, holiday functions, receptions and official luncheons hosted by President and Mrs. Bush.
The US First Lady, in fact, even said of our kababayan, "Her passion for cooking can be tasted in every bite of her delicious creations."

She cut her teeth serving as Chef Tournant at Le Ciel in Vienna, Austria;Chef at Le Grande Bistro at The Westin Hotel in Washington, D.C.; and Chef at The Colonnade at the ANA Hotel in Washington, D.C., where she implemented the "Culinary Arts Gallery" which showcased the best of American fine cuisine. Ano ba'ng uso sa White House? Pinoy, syempre!
Most of our chefs are so good they're still with us, delighting diners with their scrumptious creations for almost 25 years now! |
And while the US President and First Lady are only beginning to discover the culinary talents of Pinoys, we've been enjoying it ever since! In fact, right here in Bangus, our chefs have been so good at what they do that most of them are still with us, delighting diners with their scrumptious creations -- for almost 25 years! Yan ang di nawawala sa uso.
