MB Post Continues to Gain Accolades

Chef David LeFevre is keeping busy these days, cooking at the James Beard House in New York and at his acclaimed MB Post. His latest distinction comes from Open Table users.

Arguably the best chef in Manhattan Beach, David LeFevre of Manhattan Beach Post, was not present at Sunday's Taste of Manhattan Beach nor was his restaurant represented.

Well, LeFevre had a previous engagement: cooking for a James Beard Foundation dinner in New York on Thursday, March 22, and did not return to MB until late on the day of the Taste.

LeFevre's latest kudo is from Open Table [opentable.com] users who picked the eatery as one of their picks for the best "Hot Spots" in the country. "OpenTable says that five million reviews from people who actually visited the restaurants in question were used to compile the list," according to an article on Huffington Post.

Mind you, MB Post is right in there with the big boys... the big city players found in cities such as New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland, Memphis, Baltimore, San Diego, Palm Beach, Reno, Minneapolis, Dallas, Atlanta, Kansas City, Chicago, Hollywood, Las Vegas, West Hollywood, Denver, Palm Springs, Washington, D.C., Miami Beach, Beverly Hills, Cincinnati, Charlotte, Boston, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, San Jose, Houston, Nashville and Austin.
