Tim Carman Nominated for Beard Foundation Award
Washington City Paper food columnist Tim Carman has been nominated for a Beard Foundation Award. This is unfolding via Twitter, so I'm not certain which of Tim's articles made the cut, but I believe this tweet refers to Specifics announced! The nom is (indeed) for Tim's May 2009 piece "How Not to Hire a Chef." Congrats, Tim, this is huge and well-deserved.

The Kojo Nnamdi Show was nominated in the "Audio Webcast or Radio Show" category, and Joe Yonan of the WaPo food section also got a nomination.

Congratulations, Carman! Years of careful, diligent reporting and palate-refining have paid off in the form of national recognition. The story at the center of this is a glorious read, full of fun little twists and great food-industry characters. So pumped---a great moment for everyone in the WCP community. You should go out and celebrate. Or, perhaps, stay IN and celebrate.
