The Annual "Best New Chef" designation from Food and Wine is up for grabs this week. Ten of America’s most brilliant up-and-coming chefs have been nominated and can be voted for on the Food and Wine website.
Asheville's Curate Chef Katie Button is among the nominees. Burtton was nominated for channeling the skills she gained through her experiences at Jean Georges (New York City), The Bazaar by José Andrés (Los Angeles), internship at El Bulli (now closed; Roses, Spain) to make authentic Spanish tapas. Button was recently a semi-finalist for the prestigious James Beard award.
The recently opened Cúrate is Asheville’s newist Spanish tapas bar, serving an all-Spanish cuisine including croquettes, patatas bravas and plenty of jamon. Cúrate, pronounced coo-rah-tay, means "to heal." Since its opening last spring, Curate has received rave reviews and now Chef Button has made the top ten at Food and Wine. The restaurant is located at 11 Biltmore Avenue in Asheville NC.
