Michael Schulson of Sampan (124 S. 13th St.) will cook a wine-paired dinner at NYC's James Beard House on the evening of Tuesday, August 3; tix are $130 for Beard members and $170 for the hoi polloi. The following week, on August 12, Joe and Amy McAtee of Doylestown's Honey will take Beard for a spin with a feast designed around produce from Pennsylvania's late-summer harvest, with wines hand-selected by Amy. Same ticket rate applies to this dinner, too. Both menus after the jump.

That Michael Schulson, so handsome. 

Is there an ethereal glow around the Honey duo or is that just a mangled clipping path?
