Victor Albisu was the big winner at the 33rd RAMMY Awards held Sunday night in Washington, D.C., earning the coveted Chef of the Year award for his work at Del Campo in the District and Falls Church’s own Taco Bamba.
The annual gala held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center by the Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington presented awards to winners in 21 categories celebrating the D.C.-area’s hospitality industry.
Albisu opened Taco Bamba in a small strip mall next to his mother’s supermarket on Pimmit Drive in the summer of 2013 and the Falls Church taqueria, known for its tacos, sopes and giant tortas, has since become a neighborhood favorite, drawing crowds daily for both lunch and dinner.
