Eater San Diego was on the judging panel for last night's Battle of the Chef Bands event at the Belly Up, a benefit for the Center for Community Solutions. Over a dozen bands, made up of local restaurant staff, took the stage; in the end, the smooth stylings of Romesco's Bulevar Descarga placed third, while Who's John Galt, with Urban Solace's Matt Gordon on guitar, nabbed second place. Hodad's Nick Bone and The Big Scene threw down a fiery set and utimately came up victorious, though they did have the advantage of being a regularly performing band. [EaterWire]
