James Beard award nominations make for juicy reading
If you’re a foodie of any stripe, this is addictive reading — and it’s just the list of nominees! Check out the 2009 James Beard Foundation Awards Nominees that were announced just this morning, which includes categories such as best restaurants and best chefs in several categories (including regions); best cookbooks and food writing in magazines and newspapers; and best food stories in the broadcast media.
Not a whole lot of Ohio connections here (at least at first glance through — correct me if I’m wrong), although Michael Symon of Lola restaurant in Cleveland is up for Best Chef in the Great Lakes region, which consists of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio. Which means for an Ohio chef to score in this category, they must compete with all of the chefs in Chicago, for starters. Tough competition indeed.
