Here’s a taste of what’s on tap today at the Beard House.
Southern Hospitality, 7:00 P.M.
Woolery "Woody" Back, Table & Main, Roswell, GA / Eric Sell, Osteria Mattone, Roswell, GA / Pastry Chef Vivian Lee and Owner/Beverage Director Ryan Pernice, Table & Main and Osteria Mattone, Roswell, GA
Southern taverns and Italian osterias may occupy different continents, but they share the same philosophy: simple but satisfying food, and plenty of highly quaffable beverages to go along with it. Tonight chef Woolery “Woody” Back, who cut his teeth under JBF Award winners Tom Colicchio and Linton Hopkins, unites the two concepts at his Beard House debut. Expect mouthwatering plates like Fried Chicken Skins with Bourbon Barrel–Aged Hot Sauce and Buckeye Creek Honey; Cappellacci Pasta with Braised Duck, Foie Gras Mousse, Butter Sauce, Duck Jus, and Black Truffles; and Baba au Rhum with Panettone, Rum Crème Anglaise, and Cinnamon Whipped Cream.
