Shelly and Matt Sehnert cross the stage in a livestream of the James Beard Award gala in Chicago on Monday, accepting national recognition considered the “Oscar” of the food world. McCook’s own Sehnert’s Bakery and Bieroc Cafe was named one of only five “America’s Classics” restaurants, joining Pho 79 of Garden Grove, Calif.; Jim’s Steak & Spaghetti House in Hunting, W.Va., A&A Bakery & Double Roti Shop in Brooklyn, N.Y., and Annie’s Paramount Steakhouse in Washington, D.C. The James Beard Foundation’s mission is to “celebrate, nurture, and honor chefs and other leaders making America's food culture more delicious, diverse, and sustainable for everyone.”
