The secret to a great Mac and Cheese is a secret

The secret to a great Mac and Cheese is a secret

Cafe Med’s Meir Brown is not giving up any secrets as he heads into his fourth Mac and Cheese Festival later this month.

Brown’s restaurant has won the event once, and finished second each of the last two years but he’s ready to win it again when the event happens from 2-6 p.m. on April 22 at Cal State University Bakersfield.

“Well I don’t know if everyone is as competitive, but we’re just having fun,” Brown said before a lunchtime rush at his Stockdale Highway restaurant.

As one of the region’s signature events, the many takes on macaroni and cheese is the highlight of each year’s event. Brown said there are so many good pairings with one of America’s ultimate comfort foods.

“I like blue cheese, but I think a lot of people do that,” Brown said.
