A cadre of stellar local toques and restaurants (many of whom we’ve crowed about in the magazine) did NoVA proud at the Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington’s 2009 RAMMY awards.
Top honors takers from here in the Old Dominion included:
* Restaurant Eve (Fine Dining Restaurant of the Year)
* The Liberty Tavern (Neighborhood Gathering Place)
* Anthony Chittum (Rising Culinary Star of the Year), and,
* Kate Jansen (Pastry Chef of the Year)
Congratulations to all the 2009 nominees and, of course, to the aforementioned award winners. Peruse the full list of 2009 RAMMY contenders here.

Kudos to the NoVA team! And Chef of the Year Robert Wiedmaier is 1/3 a Virginian, too, with Brabo.

I was tempted to lay claim to Wiedmaier (Chef of the Year), but I suspect BRABO/BRABO Tasting Room is much too new to have greatly influenced the RAMMY panel.
