The James Beard Foundation announces that its Chicago event of the Taste America culinary series will take place on Sunday, March 5th at Peach’s Restaurant. Taste America celebrates the chefs and local independent restaurants at the heart of our communities, bringing together chefs and food lovers for culinary experiences across 20 U.S. cities. Proceeds from Taste America will benefit the featured chefs to support their businesses, as well as James Beard Foundation national programming that is rooted in advocacy, racial equity, sustainability, and women’s leadership for the culinary industry. Tickets for the Taste America Chicago brunch are on sale now at jamesbeard.org/tasteamerica.
Now in its 10th year, Taste America is taking on expanded shape with the TasteTwenty—a group of 20 chef teams from 20 cities across the country working together and championing the James Beard Foundation’s mission of Good Food for Good. The series will highlight the richness and diversity of local food culture in cities across America, while spotlighting chefs who are uniquely aligned to the Foundation’s mission. In addition, to celebrate national community, host and visiting chefs will be paired together for a chance to innovate and collaborate across different cities.
The Taste America Chicago brunch will be held at Peach’s Restaurant, featuring host TasteTwenty chef Lamar Moore, Peach’s Restaurant chef Cliff Rome and visiting TasteTwenty chef Chutatip ‘Nok’ Suntaranon from Kalaya in Philadelphia.
“The James Beard Foundation is thrilled to bring together such an exceptional pairing of chefs from the Chicago and Philadelphia culinary communities for our tenth year of Taste America. We are looking forward to celebrating these talented chefs and highlighting their unique stories, culinary creativity, and work in their communities,” said Siobhan Flaherty Haber, vice president of events at the James Beard Foundation.
The chefs selected to participate in this year’s Taste America culinary series demonstrate a meaningful commitment to their communities and an investment in making the industry more equitable and sustainable. From investing in local purveyors to supporting independent farmers, sourcing quality ingredients, representing diverse cuisines, or using their restaurant as a platform for underrepresented groups—the chefs chosen for this year’s TasteTwenty are leaders helping to shape the future of the culinary industry across America.
Tickets for the Taste America Chicago brunch event are now on sale for $300 per pair – Tables of two, four, and six are available for purchase.
