These Bay Area writers (including me!) won James Beard Awards
This past weekend I was in Chicago for the James Beard Media Awards, our industry's annual celebration of the best food journalism, cookbooks and food TV. (They're the sister awards to the James Beard Restaurant and Chef Awards, which were announced last night.) There were no musical numbers or red carpet interviews. But there were celebrities, and I am of course speaking about baking legend and author of 'The Cake Bible' Rose Levy Beranbaum, who pioneered the reverse creaming method and the use of weight measurements for baking in the United States. Also, Padma Lakshmi. And I won a James Beard Award! I walked away with a medal for Emerging Voice in Journalism, which makes me feel like the very hungry caterpillar hatching from her cocoon after consuming one pickle, one lollipop, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of chocolate cake and other sundries, an accurate representation of my average Saturday. It's such an honor, and I'm grateful to my colleagues and editors for their support throughout my first year on the job. One of the highlights of Saturday night was seeing so many familiar faces from the Bay Area, many of whom walked away winners. Today's newsletter is dedicated to them and their award-winning work; I hope you'll take a moment to read and listen to these exemplary local voices. San Francisco resident and Chronicle contributor George McCalman won the MFK Fisher Distinguished Writing Award, together with his co-author Jeff Gordinier, for a beautiful feature in Food & Wine about the history of rice in Charleston. McCalman was recognized for his writing, but his trademark illustrations are remarkable as well. In the Audio Programming category, Sebastopol-based chef Preeti Mistry — the force behind the East Bay's Juhu Beach Club and Navi Kitchen, both now closed — won for an episode of their podcast, ' Loading Dock Talks with Preeti Mistry ' featuring New York chef Telly Justice. Mistry frequently interviews Bay Area chefs like Fernay McPherson and Tu David Phu, so it's appointment listening for diners in our region. The Professional and Restaurant category in the book awards honors a work by 'a culinary professional or restaurant chef' — think your favorite restaurant's cookbook rather than a book by a recipe developer or influencer. This year's winner was ' Convivir: Modern Mexican Cuisine in California's Wine Country,' the first cookbook from Rogelio Garcia, the chef at Auro in Napa Valley. Co-written with Andréa Lawson Gray of San Francisco, the book celebrates the intertwining of Garcia's Mexican heritage with the ingredients of Wine Country. And one Bay Area-adjacent mention: Laila El-Haddad is a D.C. area-based author and activist, but her plus-one to the awards was our own Reem Assil of Top 100 restaurant Reem's. I think that makes her honorary, right? El-Haddad won in the Personal Essay With Recipes category for her Saveur piece ' A Cuisine Under Siege.' It's hard to find the right words to describe this powerful essay, an elegy for El-Haddad's aunt who was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City in 2023. Cook her recipe for sumagiyya, a lamb stew with sumac, and give it a read.

A first bite of Kenwood Towne Center's buzzy new restaurant
Highly Recommended is a weekly spotlight on some of food writer Keith Pandolfi's favorite finds as he eats his way across Greater Cincinnati. Come back every Tuesday for more. On a recent Thursday night at Northstar Cafe, a jazz band played standards from the American Songbook, reminding me of the New Year's Eve scene in "When Harry Met Sally" with its sparkly Harry Connick Jr. soundtrack. It was a much sunnier time in American culture when movies focused on real-life human interaction instead of superhero franchises and dystopian science fiction. Old friends sat around the bar with heavy pours of wine. The room felt celebratory, and people were laughing. It felt good. Strange, I thought, that all of this was happening just across from the Cheesecake Factory at Kenwood Towne Center. If you haven't been to Northstar, a Columbus-based chain with seven locations in Ohio, it works like this: You stand in line and order at the counter, then take a seat at one of the restaurant's comfy booths, banquettes or barstools to wait for your food to arrive. It's a relatively quick process, and once you're seated and enjoying your food, it feels more like an upscale restaurant than a counter-service joint. Most of the food at Northstar is solid, but some of it is inexplicably perfect. In that latter category, I'll point to the so-called "Simple Salad." On the menu, it reads just like that − Napa cabbage, kale, Parmesan cheese and croutons with a vinaigrette − but it delivers so many textures and sweet, salty flavors that, like me, you might go online looking for the recipe (there are plenty). I also liked the enchiladas, which are given an almost Southern California treatment. Baked in the same wood-fired oven that Northstar makes its pizzas, the flour tortillas are stuffed with roasted corn, sweet potatoes and gooey smoked gouda, topped with pepitas and served with a side of smoky, spicy black beans grown in Ohio. The opening of Northstar Cafe brings back something I haven't seen for some time in this suburban neck of the woods: Buzz. The fact that it's located inside the old Brooks Brothers space at a shopping mall makes that buzz all the more surprising. Northstar Cafe, 7875 Montgomery Road, Suite 3112, Kenwood; 513-570-5570, Northstar's first Cincinnati-area location opened at Liberty Center in 2016 and is still open.
