Local Event
Epicurean Indy exists to celebrate the rich diversity and vibrant culture of the Indiana food
scene by highlighting the unique stories and people behind each restaurant. We strive to
create an inclusive platform that welcomes everyone—regardless of race, gender, language, or background—to experience the flavors of Indianapolis. Our mission is to shine
a light on the talent who bring their culinary passions to life, encouraging underrepresented chefs to step into the spotlight and connect with their city. By opening doors for immigrant chefs and aspiring culinary talents, we aim to cultivate a welcoming and supportive environment for the future of Indianapolis cuisine.
Seven local chefs come together to support the James Beard Foundation and recognize the diverse talent of Indianapolis' culinary scene. Evening is reception-style 5pm-6pm followed by statements from Youssef Boudarine (J'adore, Bluebeard), James Beard Foundation, and Mark Conway (World Food Championships).
