It’s the James Beard Dinner redux.

The five chefs who cooked at the James Beard House in New York in June will recreate the dinner -- as closely as seasonal availability will allow -- in their hometown in August.

Jamie McFadden, chef and co-owner of Cuisiniers Catering; Kevin Fonzo, chef/owner of K Restaurant; Scott Copeland, executive chef at Antonio’s La Fiamma; and James

and Julie Petrakis, chef/owners of The Ravenous Pig, will gather to cook the meal on Sunday, August 29, at the Ravenous Pig in Winter Park.

The evening will kick off, as it did in New York, with a sparkling wine reception at 6 p.m., with hors d’oeuvres, followed by the multi-course meal with wine pairings. Cost is $95, which includes tax and gratuity. A veritable bargain.

The dinner won't be precisely the same. Even just two months removed the seasonality of some of the ingredients used has passed. And the point of the dinner was to showcase the local ingredients of Central Florida. So instead of trying to find replacement ingredients from the global market, the chefs will use what's available at the end of August to recreate the menu as closely as possible.
