More importantly, it's a great moment for a very talented Philadelphia chef, and it becomes part of the process of convincing the world that Philadelphia is a much better culinary destination than most people realize. In my opinion, the James Beard Association is the most prestigious culinary organization in the country, and receiving an award such as the "Best Chef in the Mid-Atlantic Region" is a very big deal and one that will place Michael in a class where he most certainly belongs.
You look around our area, and all of a sudden you see more and more amazing talent in
our kitchens. Michael Solomonov is part of this picture and I might add, part of our prestigious 22 Spots. If you come upon a top ten list of U.S. restaurant cities, something is very wrong if Philadelphia is missing.
