If you didnt happen to make it to NYC, this is the next best thing.
So, you couldnt make it out to New York City this past June for the BIG James Beard Foundation dinner featuring our very own Chef Jose Martinez. Well, here is some news that will get your attention.
October 17th and 18th Chef Martinez will recreate his amazing five course meal that was served at this summers JBF dinner.
