Congratulations to Chickadee’s John DaSilva on his James Beard Award Nomination

The James Beard Foundation has announced its 2022 semifinalist nominees for the James Beard Awards — one of the most prestigious awards a restaurant or chef can earn. The non-profit celebrates restaurants and chefs around the country in many categories!
Winners will be announced on June 13th at a ceremony in Chicago.
We were happy to learn that John DaSilva – from South Boston’s own Chickadee – has been nominated for Best Chef in the Northeast! Way to go!
The wildly popular restaurant located at 21 Dry Dock opened back 2018 and serves up lunch and dinner featuring local farm ingredients with a Mediterranean twist.
Fingers crossed!
