Ten Years of Awesome: Poole’s at the James Beard House
It's hard to believe it, but Poole's Diner will turn 10 years old this coming December! Coincidentally, one of our favorite restaurants in the world, City House in Nashville, also turns 10...just three days before Poole's! To celebrate these milestones, chef Ashley Christensen and Poole's chef de cuisine Jason Tomaszewski will head to New York to team up with City House chef Tandy Wilson to cook at the James Beard House on June 12th. The menu is nothing short of mouth-watering and it promises to be an unforgettable night!
