James Beard Awards
The James Beard Awards aim to honor remarkable talent and performance in the culinary arts, hospitality, media, and the more extensive food system, as well as a demonstrated dedication to racial and gender equity, community, sustainability, and a culture that allows everyone to thrive. The James Beard Foundation Awards are given annually to culinary experts in the United States by the James Beard Foundation. Each year, around James Beard's birthday on May 5, the awards honor chefs, restaurateurs, authors, and journalists. The media awards were given out during a dinner in New York City, and the chef and restaurant honors were given out in New York until the Foundation's annual gala moved to Chicago in 2015. The Awards will be held in Chicago through 2027.

Oriole is also nominated for Outstanding Restaurant, and Oriole is in the running for a national James Beard Award after receiving two Michelin stars. Oriole tucked away in a back alley in Chicago's bustling West Loop, has gained national acclaim for its engaging, non-stuffy tasting menus.

It was the only restaurant in Chicago to receive a coveted four-star review from the Chicago Tribune in 2021.

Their new tasting menu has raised the restaurant to one of the most lauded in the city.

James Beard Nominations 2022-FAQs
A working restaurateur who sets high national standards in restaurant operations and entrepreneurship. Candidates must have been in the restaurant business for at least 10 years. Candidates must not have been nominated for a James Beard Foundation chef award in the past 10 years.
Beard taught and mentored generations of professional chefs and food enthusiasts. He published more than twenty books, and his memory is honored by his foundation's annual James Beard Awards.
The Michelin stars aren't awarded to the chefs in the first place This makes a Michelin star unique from other accolades such as a James Beard Award, which acknowledges the restaurant where a chef works but bestows the honor on her or him.
More than a chef, James Beard was a world traveler, cookbook author, a kind teacher, and most importantly, the pioneer of the American food industry. Born in May 1903 to honest and hardworking parents, James Beard grew up in Portland, Oregon, where he also attended Reed College.
The mission of the James Beard Awards is to recognize exceptional talent and achievement in the culinary arts, hospitality, media, and broader food system, as well as a demonstrated commitment to racial and gender equity, community, sustainability, and a culture where all can thrive.
