Rising Star Chef in the Making

Chef Aaron Deal Named James Beard Award Semifinalist

Join us in congratulating Chef Deal who has been named a semifinalist to receive a prestigious 2009 James Beard Award presented by the James Beard Foundation. Chef Deal was nominated to receive the award as a "rising star, given to a chef 30 years old or younger."

Deemed "the Oscars of the food world," by Time magazine, The James Beard Foundation Awards are the country's most coveted honor for chefs; food and beverage professionals; broadcast media, journalists, and authors working on food; and restaurant architects and designers.

A second round of voting by the judges, who are food and restaurant industry journalists and past award winners, began Friday. The finalists will be announced March 23 at Frontera Grill in Chicago - the first time the announcement has been made outside the foundation's New York headquarters. Another round of voting will follow that announcement, and the winners will be named May 4 at a gala at New York's Avery Fisher Hall.

Good luck Chef Deal!
