The James Beard Foundation’s Taste America® presented by Capital One brings together chefs, special guests, and diners from across the country to celebrate the local independent restaurants at the heart of our communities.
The walk-around tasting at the Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco will be an exciting gathering of the San Francisco Bay Area culinary community, with food stations hosted by TasteTwenty chef Nelson German of alaMar Dominican Kitchen and Sobre Mesa Afro-Latin Cocktail Lounge and many other notable local chefs. Each station will reflect the chef’s signature culinary style and highlight the uniqueness of their restaurant and community. The tasting will also have beverage stations and other activations from our national and local sponsors.
