“The Oscars are the James Beard Awards, but for film.”

The JBF Awards honors chefs, restaurateurs, humanitarians, media, and journalists within the American culinary world, all colliding together to celebrate during an epic weekend in Chicago, culminating in a glamorous gala where all of the winners are announced.
I was lucky enough to have been invited by JBF and given all-access credentials the 2019 JBF Awards in Chicago on May 6th, which included red carpet coverage and unforgettable behind-the-scenes moments backstage. I had the most incredible time working with their editorial team and sharing highlights via my social media for JBF. Below is a recap of the weekend’s champagne-fueled affair. Congrats to all of the winners and nominees, and thank you #JBFA for having me as a guest! xoxo
