Then Sarah Rinkavage of Marisol went down for Rising Star Chef of the Year Marisol. And then Meg Galus of the Boka Group lost Outstanding Pastry Chef.

Thattu is a finalist for Best New Restaurant. Considering they are only in a food hall, that's pretty amazing. Their food is great. Congratulations to them and everyone else.2019 Chicago Food Business License Issuances Map: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1AGfUU ... sp=sharing

No Chicago restaurants made the Outstanding Hospitality ballot, but two restaurants in neighboring states did: Hobnob, in Racine, Wisconsin, and Love Handle, in Indianapolis.
Hobnob on the list, that is pretty cool!

Post #41 - August 20th, 2020, 12:19 pmThere will be no James Beard Awards handed out to outstanding chefs and restaurants this year. After first committing to a virtual ceremony last month, instead of the usual Chicago awards gala, the James Beard Foundation announced today that it will not announce 2020 winners, which would have been chosen from the already-announced list of chef and restaurant awards finalists.

Just some crazy-ass shit in that piece. I think it probably confirms quite a bit of what many people have felt about the restaurant side of Beards for years (myopic, self-important, self-congratulatory, exclusionary, etc.). Seems like the recent industry reckoning prompted a look in the mirror for tptb behind the Beards -- and provided a perspective many outsiders already had.
