The news reverberated last night among foodies throughout the state of Alabama. Chris Hastings has already been enjoying a pretty special year – including a win on Iron Chef America and appearing in cities like Charlotte, NC and Charleston, SC.
Now, after four previous nominations for the James Beard Foundation Award’s Best Chef, South category over the last five years, came this:

Of course if you’re out and about travelling, you may interested in knowing who else took home awards during last night’s ceremony (PDF).
