It’s not every day that a Columbus chef is named a semi-finalist for a James Beard Foundation award. In fact, to our knowledge, it’s never happened before. But this year, chef Kent Rigsby of Rigsby’s Kitchen and chef Magdiale Wolmark of Dragonfly Neo-V became the first.
Deemed “the Oscars of the food world,” by Time magazine, The James Beard Foundation Awards are the country’s most coveted honor for chefs, food and beverage professionals, and food writers in North America.
Visit the restaurant’s websites by clicking on their name below. If you have never eaten at these restaurants, I can only say “why not.” Click the link to visit the James Beard Foundation’s website, to find out more about this award.
