Philly's 2011 James Beard Award finalists

Back in February, the James Beard Foundation announced its 2011 chef/restaurant semifinalists, and today they're tweeting out the finalists rapid-fire style. Three local luminaries have been earmarked so far — Michael Solomonov of Zahav has been nominated for "Best Chef: Mid-Atlantic," Marc Vetri's Vetri is up for "Outstanding Restaurant," and Sam Calagione of Delaware's Dogfish Head is in the running for "Outstanding Wine & Spirits Professional." The awards will be doled out on May 9 in New York City. One already-awarded honor of note: Chef Vola's, in Atlantic City, has earned an "America's Classics" award from Beard.
