two.one.five Q&A with Jose Garces
two.one.five mag's Ben T. Levy caught up with Jose Garces for an interview. One of the topics he asked about was the chef's thoughts on taking home a James Beard Foundation Award for Best Chef, Mid-Atlantic earlier this week:
First off, obviously, congratulations for your James Beard Award (for Best Chef: Mid-Atlantic). You were nominated twice before; do you feel these things give you more creative leverage?
Winning is fantastic, even better than I imagined, but I don�t know about creative leverage. Generally, I think that the work a chef does in his or her restaurant is what allows them to take any next step in their career. But awards certainly help, and it�s incredibly rewarding to be recognized for what you do by others in your field. These awards are like the Academy Awards for chefs, the most coveted in the industry.
