During today’s press luncheon at the historic Lowndes Grove Plantation in Charleston, James Beard Foundation president Susan Ungaro and JBF board chair Emily Luchetti announced the finalists for the 2013 James Beard Foundation Awards, the nation’s most prestigious recognition program honoring professionals in the culinary world—from restaurants and chefs to cookbook authors and media.

“The Lowndes Grove Plantation is the perfect setting for this year’s finalist announcement as we celebrate Charleston’s rich culture and culinary excellence,” said Ungaro noted.

Finalists were announced in the Foundation’s various awards programs, and two South Carolina nominees were named among them. They are (by category):

BEST NEW RESTAURANT

  • The Ordinary, Charleston, SC

OUTSTANDING CHEF

  • Sean Brock, McCrady’s, Charleston, SC

Winners will be announced in May in New York.
