Jason Santos is Boston's Hottest Chef

The polls are closed, the ballots have been counted, and Boston has its first ever hottest chef: Jason Santos, owner and executive chef of Blue Inc. The dashing, blue-haired, liquid nitrogen milkshake-loving Santos beat out runner up Chris Coombs of Deuxave and dbar by under 100 votes and will now proceed to the nationals round. He'll face the other chef hotties from San Francisco, LA, Portland, Miami, Austin and Chicago for the title of Hottest Chef in the Country. We can't lose this one, Boston. I mean just imagine the humiliation of losing to Miami. Again, congrats to all of our participating chefs. Voting will commence on Eater National this Tuesday.
