OAKLAND, Calif. (KTVU)   - A celebration party brought people out to toast a rising star in Oakland's restaurant scene Friday night. Chef Rashad Armstead, 31, was savoring his new fame after appearing on the Food Network show "Chopped".  Armstead hosted family and a crowd of friends and guests at the Overlook rooftop venue near Lake Merritt in downtown Oakland.

The legal docs say he owes almost $41k in back child support, and needs to pay $10k to be released from custody. Our Young Dro sources say the child support case involves another baby mama -- not his current GF who he had the pudding spat wi
