Late September will bring Park City to New York City as five of our mountain town’s best restaurants and chefs put on a long weekend of food events at Platform by James Beard Foundation, a destination in the Market 57 food hall.
The James Beard Foundation (JBF) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that celebrates and supports the people behind America’s food culture. Platform by JBF brings together exceptional culinary talent, industry leaders, and visitors from NYC and beyond to experience unforgettable dining and educational programming.
Platform’s state-of-the-art show kitchen will be the stage for an outstanding line-up of culinary experiences spotlighting Park City’s top chefs and award-winning spirit companies from September 26-29.
“We are incredibly thrilled at the opportunity to bring Park City’s exceptional culinary talents to Platform by the James Beard Foundation,” Park City Area Restaurant Association executive director Ginger Wicks explains. “What an honor it is for our remarkably talented culinary community to be in the spotlight on such a prominent dining stage.”
PCARA is the umbrella organization that supports and promotes more than 70 award-winning restaurants in the Park City area. The Park City events at Platform by JBF will be made possible by funds received from a Summit County Restaurant Tax Grant. Sixteen PCARA members submitted applications, and a selection committee consisting of PCARA Board Members and 2 representatives of the Park City Chamber Bureau, Summit County Tax Grant, and the Utah Office of Tourism assisted in choosing the winners.
“Congratulations to our PCARA members who have been chosen to showcase their creativity and expertise, while representing our esteemed culinary community,” Wicks continues.
