On Sunday the James Beard Foundation held its annual media awards at the Hudson Theatre in New York City. Beard medallions were hung upon the best of last year’s culinary journalists as well as radio, television, and website producers. While their work spans a diverse range of subjects—sushi chef supremacy, masterful winemaking in Spain, the link between diet and the human mind—every winning piece demonstrates commitment to high journalistic, artistic, and technical standards and, of course, a passion for gastronomy.
