A national tasting event celebrating your local restaurant community.

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 State Room will be an exciting gathering of chefs from the New England culinary community, featuring food stations by TasteTwenty chef Cassie Piuma of Sarma and many other notable local chefs. Each station’s offering will reflect the chef’s signature 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.
