James Beard Foundation Women of Arizona

James Beard Foundation Women of Arizona is an alliance fostered by “Let’s Talk,” a national collaboration across 10 cities of more than 200 women restaurateurs. Chicago’s Rohini Dey, Ph.D., owner of Vermilion and trustee of the James Beard Foundation, founded it with the goal of bringing together women restaurateurs for collaborative action and support. “Let’s Talk” is supported by the James Beard Foundation Women’s Leadership Program. 

Women restaurateurs are jointly promoting their sustainable success through the pandemic and beyond, working together to boost small businesses, learn from each other, and to share and create opportunities.

This January, James Beard Foundation Women of Arizona is launching its first initiative: offering multi-restaurant tasting menus across the Valley. Fifteen of the Valley’s leading Women chefs and restauranteurs are participating in this round over the course of three weekends, Jan. 15-16, Jan. 22-23 and Jan. 29-30.

Everyone has the opportunity to enjoy three restaurants in one meal, showcasing some of the Valley’s best food. Five groups of three restaurants have created unique three-course menus for two at $55 each. Order online by 10 p.m. Wednesday for pickup or delivery the following Friday or Saturday night.

Check out the menus HERE.
