2023 James Beard Award Finalists Revealed: See Who Made the Cut
The James Beard Foundation Awards, also known as the "foodie Oscars," has announced its 2023 finalists for best chefs and restaurants in New York and Connecticut. The winners will be revealed in a ceremony on June 5. The awards were paused for two years due to concerns about COVID-19, abusive workplaces, and a lack of diversity. This year's finalists represent a wider range of culinary styles and cuisines, with many of the New York City restaurants located in Brooklyn. The nominees include Amanda Cohen of Dirt Candy, Nasim Alikhani of Sofreh, and Charlie Mitchell of Clover Hill.
