JBF Winner: "A Matter of Taste: Serving Up Paul Liebrandt"

Congratulations to all James Beard Foundation Winners, including producers Sally Rowe, Rachel Mills, Alan Oxman and team, along with Executive Chef/Owner Paul Liebrandt for their hard work on HBO documentary
"A Matter of Taste: Serving Up Paul Liebrandt"

The film was given the top honor of JBF Award for Best Documentary in the Book, Broadcast and Journalism category.

The film, directed by Sally Rowe, is about Paul Liebrandt, Chef of Corton in Manhattan's Tribeca. It's an intimate look inside the world of an immensely talented and driven young chef who has twice earned three stars from the New York Times: once when he was 24, and again a mere 8 weeks after Corton opened.

Wine Director David Gordon’s impressive international list – 1,800 selections and more than 20,000 bottles – establishes Tribeca Grill as a worldwide wine destination. He is most proud of the more than 300 different Châteauneuf du Papes on the list, making it the largest collection in the world from that appellation.

DREW'S LETTER

In 1985, we opened our first restaurant, Montrachet, with modest aspirations. Our objective was to offer wonderful food and wine without barriers and pretense. The service was caring but unobtrusive. We were passionate about showing our guests a good time, and soon developed a devoted following.

Montrachet was the inspiration that led to Tribeca Grill, Rubicon, Nobu, Mai House, Centrico and all of the wonderful restaurants that are featured on our website. We're sometimes described as "Empire Builders," but the truth is we've never had the ambition to build an empire. Our goal is to create a variety of dining experiences that are unique and memorable, so that you can visit one of our restaurants every night of the week and discover something new and engaging each time. The common thread through all of our restaurants is a level of professionalism that ensures that you receive genuine value for your dining experience.

We never forget that you are the reason we're in business. Your satisfaction is our primary concern. There are many places where you can dine, so when you choose a Myriad Restaurant Group Restaurant, you've put your trust in us. The challenge that excites us is the opportunity to exceed your expectations. Thank you for dining with us and Bon Appétit!
