One of the largest events of its kind in the world, the weekend-long event taking place February 13 & 14 at the Seaport Hotel and World Trade Center Boston features educational seminars, celebrity chef demonstrations and a special VIP area, the Vintner’s Reserve Lounge, that offers a more relaxing atmosphere and even a dessert bar. The main event, however, remains the Grand Tasting. With more than 1,800 vintages from over 200 wineries being poured, this wine extravaganza remains one of the highlights of the winter for wine aficionados and novices alike. And in honor of this landmark silver anniversary, the Wine Expo’s many offerings are not only looking back at the evolution of the wine industry over the last quarter century, they are also taking a peek ahead at what the next 25 years has in store. WHAT BOSTON’S BUZZING ABOUT THE HOME OF HOCKEY 2.1.16 Hockey is a big deal in the Boston area. Just look at the Boston Bruins’ rabid following as evidence. Every February, however, the Bs share their arena, the TD Garden, with another local, rink-related obsession: college hockey, specifically the 64th annualBeanpot hockey tournament (refer to listing, page 15) between the storied men’s programs at Boston University, Harvard University, Boston College and Northeastern University. The first round, in which BC faces off against Harvard and BU takes on Northeastern, takes place on February 1. The winners then square off against each other on February 8. The BC Eagles have dominated in recent years, yet hope and enthusiasm remain among the other teams’ supporters that they can earn year-long bragging rights to the city. 6 PANORAMA HUBBUB THE CIRCUS COMES TO TOWN The home-grown, Tony Award-winning Broadway hit Pippin (refer to listing, page 16) returns to town February 2–14. Taking the stage at the Boston Opera House, this acclaimed revival got its start at Cambridge’s American Repertory Theater under the direction of heralded auteur Diane Paulus. This version of Stephen Schwartz’s 1972 musical is enhanced by the Bob Fosse-influenced choreography, as well as by breathtaking acrobatics created by Montreal-based circus troupe Les 7 doigts de la main. The play—which features the show- stopping numbers “Magic to Do,” “Corner of the Sky” and “Glory”—tells the story of the title character, a prince who goes on a journey of self-discovery and encounters characters from various strata of society, including his grandmother, played in the Boston engagement by screen legend Adrienne Barbeau. THE WRITE STUFF If you’re too young to remember the classic 1970 filmLove Story, then the reunion of that film’s stars for the touring production of Love Letters (refer to listing, page 16) coming to the Shubert Theatre February 2–7 might not be on your radar. But trust us, it should be. The iconic screen couple of Ali MacGraw and Ryan O’Neal bring their considerable chemistry to A.R. Gurney’s heartfelt tale of two childhood friends who, despite leading mostly separate lives, connect at a deeper level through their ongoing, lifelong correspondence. Through ups and downs, marriages and children, the pair shares their hopes and dreams across five decades of triumphs, heartbreaks and loss. What better appetizer to Valentine’s Day than sharing this timeless story with your own soulmate? ART FROM DOWN UNDER Beginning February 5, Harvard Art Museums (refer to listing, page 27) gets a little Southern exposure when it unveils the exhibit Everywhen: The Eternal Present in Indigenous Art from Australia. This display of contemporary aboriginal art from the last 40 years deals with the cyclical view of time that is ingrained in the culture of the island continent’s native people. The more than 70 works by some of the most acclaimed artists working in Australia today is enhanced by historical objects from Harvard’s own Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology that underscore both Australian art’s enduring indigenous traditions as well as its most recent innovations. —Scott Roberto TOP PHOTO: JOAN MARCUS; BOTTOM: TOMMY WATSON, WIPU ROCKHOLE, 2004, COURTESY OF YANDA ABORIGINAL ART BOSTONGUIDE.COM 7 HIGH 5 CHOCOLATE Discover Boston’s best spots for sweet treats just in time for Valentine’s Day TAZA CHOCOLATE BAR (Boston Public Market, refer to listing, page 24; tazachocolate.com): The Somerville-based maker of stone-ground chocolate has a conveniently located counter at Haymarket’s year-round indoor market that serves freshly crafted chocolate drinks and more.

  • VITALY PALEY BIO Chef/Owner - Headwaters, Imperial , the Crown & Paley’S Place
    VITALY PALEY BIO Chef/Owner - Headwaters, Imperial , The Crown & Paley’s Place Critically-acclaimed chef, accomplished restaurateur, and noted cookbook author, Vitaly Paley has cemented himself as both a leader and a trailblazer in the American culinary scene. Through his award-winning food, creativity, and deep-rooted passion, it’s no wonder he is referred to as “The Dean of Chefs,” by the Portland, Ore. food community. With more than 25 years experience, a 2005 James Beard Award for “Best Chef Pacific Northwest,” and an April 2011 winning battle on Food Network’s “Iron Chef America” under his belt, the Russian-born and French-trained chef explores the historical significance of food and his heritage through diligent research. Vitaly believes cooking is as much about soul-searching and mood as it is about rigorous technique and constant repetition, “we’re always out there, putting our heart and soul on the plate,” said Vitaly on Oregon Public Broadcasting’s Think Out Loud. Vitaly has been instrumental in defining regional Northwest cuisine and is well-known for his clean preparations of local, sustainably-grown ingredients to produce seasonal, perfectly-executed dishes. In October 2016, Vitaly, along with his wife/partner, Kimberly Paley, opened Headwaters inside the historic Heathman Hotel. He is the third James Beard winning chef to take the helm of the property. The menu is the collaborative effort of Vitaly Paley and Executive Chef Tim Eckard, showcasing local ingredients from Oregon’s diverse bounty. Vitaly pays homage to the rich history of the location by reviving the iconic tea court, adding a Russian flare that speaks to his own heritage.

  • JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2020 NOMINEES Media and Restaurant & Chef Awards Details Also Announced
    For Immediate Release May 4, 2020 Media Contact Mary Blanton Ogushwitz / John Roth Magrino 212 957 3005 [email protected] [email protected] JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2020 NOMINEES Media and Restaurant & Chef Awards Details Also Announced NEW YORK, NY (May 4, 2020) – The James Beard Foundation is proud to announce the nominees for the 2020 James Beard Awards presented by Capital One. The nominees were announced today on what would have been the 30th Anniversary James Beard Awards in Chicago. Over the past few months COVID-19 has upended the restaurant community in every facet. During this time the Foundation has turned its attention to supporting the relief and rebuild efforts, postponing Awards activities to instead focus on the James Beard Foundation Food and Beverage Industry Relief Fund, which to date has disbursed more than $4 million to independent, locally owned restaurants around the country. After consultation with the chefs and restaurateurs across the country, the Foundation decided to announce the 2020 nominees and honorees, and set the dates for this year’s remaining Awards events, which recognize the work done in 2019. The announcement was livestreamed via the Foundation’s Twitter account and co-hosted by VISIT PHILADELPHIA President and CEO Jeff Guaracino and Clare Reichenbach, CEO of the James Beard Foundation. As the original nominee announcement was set to take place in Philadelphia, the Foundation shared the virtual stage with several others from the great city, including Mayor Jim Kenney, Philadelphia’s Kalaya Thai Kitchen chef and owner, Chutatip “Nok” Suntaranon, and Jamila Robinson, 2020 Journalism Awards Committee Vice Chair and Food Editor of The Philadelphia Inquirer.

    Commonweal Theatre Company presents I Love To Eat by James Still In performance: April 15 - June 27, 2021 products and markets. Beard nurtured a genera- tion of American chefs and cookbook authors who have changed the way we eat. James Andrew Beard was born on May 5, 1903, in Portland, Oregon, to Elizabeth and John Beard. His mother, an independent English woman passionate about food, ran a boarding house. His father worked at Portland’s Customs House. The family spent summers at the beach at Gearhart, Oregon, fishing, gathering shellfish and wild berries, and cooking meals with whatever was caught. He studied briefly at Reed College in Portland in 1923, but was expelled. Reed claimed it was due to poor scholastic performance, but Beard maintained it was due to his homosexuality. Beard then went on the road with a theatrical troupe. He lived abroad for several years study- ing voice and theater but returned to the United States for good in 1927. Although he kept trying to break into the theater and movies, by 1935 he needed to supplement what was a very non-lucra- Biography tive career and began a catering business.

    The original source for data in this spreadsheet is a 2002 study for MassDEP by Draper/Lennon, Inc. titled Identification, Characterization, and Mapping of Food Waste and Food Waste Generators in Massachusetts . The final report from this study is available online at: http://www.mass.gov/dep/about/priorities/foodwast.doc. The data was updated in summer 2011 by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 1 office. This study identified large generators of food waste in Massachusetts, such as food processors, wholesalers, grocery stores, institutions, and large restaurants. It calculated estimated food waste generation, shown in tons per year (TPY) in column G, and mapped generator locations to facilitate planning of programs and facilities for capturing source separated organic materials for composting or other diversion. Note that waste generation estimates are not available for food and beverage manufacturers/processors and distributors due to the variability in these sectors. In some other cases, generation estimates are not available for other facilities when data needed to estimate generation is missing for that location. Facility Category Codes in column F marked TYPE show generator groupings in the report as follows: Type Category Description Food and Beverage F Manufacturers/Processors W Wholesale Distributors IH Institutions -Healthcare Facilities IS Institutions -Independent Schools IC Institutions -Colleges/Universities IP Institutions -Correctional Facilities C Resorts and Conference Facilities G Supermarkets and Grocery Stores R Restaurants Most of the columns in the spreadsheet are self‐explanatory. Columns H, I J, and K provide GIS mapping coordinates to assist in locating food waste generators.
