Sit down to an eight (!) course meal with a long list of local chefs at this year’s James Beard Foundation Celebrity Chef dinner, held at Tradd’s on Wed. May 15. All-inclusive tickets are $200 and can be purchased online. The night starts with a cocktail reception at 6 p.m., with dinner kicking off at 7 p.m.
Participating Charleston chefs include: Brandon Buck (Tradd’s); Bob Cook (Edmund’s Oast); Kelly Franz (Magnolia’s); Remy Funfrock (Gabrielle); Travis Grimes (Husk); Kevin Johnson (The Grocery); Michael Toscano (Le Farfalle); Ken Vendrinksi (Trattoria Lucca); and visiting chef, Michael Ginor (Hudson Valley Foie Gras).
