BERNARDAUD Proudly Salutes The James Beard Foundation on Its 25th Anniversary and the Release of “The Best of the Best” - A Celebration of Its Award-Winning Chefs and America's Culinary Heritage.
New York, NY, April 05, 2012 --(PR.com)-- French porcelain manufacturer Bernardaud hosts a unique signing and reception to salute the James Beard Foundation release of “The Best of the Best: A 25th Anniversary Celebration of America’s Outstanding Chefs.” Chef Daniel Boulud, a recipient of three James Beard Foundation awards, will be Bernardaud’s special guest at the signing. Bernardaud is proud to salute the James Beard Foundation and its award winning chefs for their accomplishments and commitment to upholding culinary excellence.
Established in 1986, the James Beard Foundation celebrates, preserves and nurtures excellence and diversity in America’s culinary heritage. “The Best of the Best” commemorates the Foundation’s 25th year anniversary in a volume that contains stunning photographs of the 21 Outstanding Chefs who between 1991 and 2010 received its award. The prestigious honor is given in recognition of “a working chef in America whose career has set national industry standards and who has served as an inspiration to other food professionals.” It is among the most highly coveted awards among professional chefs in the United States.

The Beard Foundation upholds his legacy through the administration of diverse educational programs, scholarships and food service awards. The historic James Beard House in New York serves as a “performance space” for visiting chefs.
