Washington may have suffered a crushing shutoutat the James Beard Awards this year, but that doesn’t mean our chefs and bartenders can’t get inside the legendary James Beard House. Tonight, nominees from the 2012 RAMMY awards will be sharing the landmark’s notoriously tiny kitchen, preparing dishes and drinks for an event called Best of DC.
Justin Bittner of Bar Pilar, Ripple chef Logan Cox and pastry chef Alison Reed, Claudio Pirollo from Et Voila!, and Rasika chef Vikram Sunderam will be cooking dishes paired with Virginia wines, while bartenders from Birch and Barley, Estadio, Bar Pilar, Virtue Feed & Grain, and Room 11 will be mixing drinks for the reception.
