Three of the five finalists in the James Beard Awards Mid-Atlantic category were from South Philadelphia: winner Cristina Martinez, Jesse Ito of Royal Izakaya, and Chutatip “Nok” Suntaranon. Ellen Yin of Fork, a.kitchen, and High Street Hospitality, was a finalist for restaurateur of the year. The area’s other big winner in 2022 was Corinne’s Place, the soul-food landmark that Corinne Bradley-Powers founded in Camden’s Parkside neighborhood more than 30 years ago.
