For decades, cooking at the James Beard House has been an aspiration for many chefs and considered a career milestone. In May 2021, we launched the Beard House Fellows program presented by Capital One, which re-envisions the potential of this historic space into a hub of training and professional development for talented emerging chefs.

Each Fellow will have a one-month residence at the Beard House where JBF will provide hard skills training along with the opportunity to develop a meal kit in collaboration with Great Performances that will be available across the country.

The inaugural Fellow, Nicole Merino, has curated a custom Beard Box that includes ingredients and instructions to create a delicious dinner for two along with gifts from our partners. Guests who reserve their meal kits will also have the opportunity to “meet” Nicole through a virtual event, where she will demonstrate how to prepare her dish and discuss the inspiration behind her menu. Hue Society Founder, Tahiirah Habibi, will also be on-hand to provide expert wine pairing tips.

Nicole Merino’s Beard Box will be on sale Monday, May 17 through Thursday, May 20 at 11:59 P.M. ET. 
Meal Kits serve two (2) guests, and will be delivered on Tuesday, May 25.  The virtual event will take place on Wednesday, May 26 at 6:30 P.M. ET. 

+ Beard Box is available for nationwide shipping in the continental United States.

+ Please note that due to the nature of this event, we are not able to accommodate dietary restrictions at this stage. We appreciate your understanding and support of this policy.

+ Kits are non-refundable.
