On the Menu: Asian Street Food Extravaganza
Brad Farmerie has been wowing us for years, from his innovative antipodal cuisine at Public to his recent victory at New York City's Cochon 555. For tomorrow's Beard House dinner, he and his Double Crown team will celebrate the Chinese New Year with a feast of reimagined and refined Asian street food.

Eye Candy: The Boar Hunt in the Greenhouse Gallery
Located where diners meet and mingle before meals, the Greenhouse Gallery at the Beard House exhibits the works of up-and-coming and established artists who work with culinary themes.
Currently on display is The Boar Hunt, a photo series by Peter Frank Edwards that documents the hunting, butchering, and cooking of a wild boar in the wilderness of South Carolina's Santee River Delta. "The premise was to get a great chef and put him with some great hunters and let them learn and experience different things from each other," says Edwards.
The great chef? Brad Farmerie of NYC's Public, Double Crown, and the Monday Room. "Brad has a passion for pork, but had never hunted and harvested a pig," says Edwards. "We had a great and challenging time working on the project together. Chest-deep swamp water, long hikes through the swamp, listening for the pigs."
The work was commissioned by Men's
