James Beard Foundation’s Taste America dinner series visits a unique Boston restaurant
Brassica Kitchen in Jamaica Plain hosts the illustrious organization after its award nomination.
The quirky Brassica Kitchen has long been a reason for locals to ride the Orange Line ’til the last stop. With eclectic, deeply flavored small plates and cocktails by night — often employing house-fermented ingredients — and an excellent weekend brunch, Brassica has earned local and national acclaim. The destination’s most recent accolades are among among the most prestigious culinary awards in the industry: Brassica Kitchen co-chefs and creators Jeremy Kean and Philip Kruta shared a nod for Best Chef: Northeast from the James Beard Foundation.
Beyond awards season, the foundation also hosts some of the most exciting dining events in the country, such as the Taste America series. These dinners bring together chefs, special guests, and diners across the country to celebrate independent restaurants at the heart of their communities.
