The James Beard Foundation has announced its 2024 semifinalist nominees for the James Beard Awards — one of the most prestigious awards a restaurant or chef can earn. The non-profit celebrates restaurants and chefs around the country in many categories!
We were happy to learn that Comfort Kitchen was nominated for Best New Restaurant! Way to go!
After three years of operating as a residency pop-up restaurant out of Little Dipper in Jamaica Plain, Comfort Kitchen opened its own doors in January of last year out of a historic building that used to be a public restroom until 1974. The accolades for this new restaurant have been pouring in!
The semifinalists will be whittled down to a short list of finalists that will be announced on Wednesday, April 3. Winners will be announced in an awards presentation on Monday, June 10 in Chicago.
Fingers crossed!
