A New York City chef took home the prize for best chef in the state, but the city's chefs and restaurants were shut out of national categories at this year’s James Beard Awards.
“Philly’s a destination that has long been ignored by awards in general,” said Rick Camac, executive director of industry relations for the Institute of Culinary Education, who said the James Beard Foundation was “getting away from being a New York City club.”
He said he could not remember a year when the Big Apple was shut out of every national award and called the results a “big surprise,” though he supports the new direction. “I think it's great,” said Camac. “I'm a lifetime New Yorker, so I guess I should be grumbling about that, but I think everyone should get a shot.”
“It’s important for the industry that people are recognized outside of the major metropolitan areas,” added Camac. New York City took top honors in one local category, best chef in New York state, which went to Junghyun Park ofPark, along with his wife Ellia, runs the Michelin-starred Korean restaurant out of a Murray Hill brownstone.
