What We Ate at the Hot 10 Party for the Best New Restaurants in America
Oh boy, did we eat well last night.
Yes. We did eat well last night.
We managed to round up the chefs from our September article Hot 10: Best New Restaurants In America, and they served a feast. We paired gin martinis with a dry-aged porterhouse from Austin's Jeffrey's and Josephine House, scooped up Joule's beef tartare with pine nuts and Asian pear, and young upstart Ari Taymor of Alma, the Best New Restaurant in America, made us his Seaweed and Tofu Beignets with Lime Mayonnaise. Check out more recipes we ate last night in the slideshow—and try your hand at them, too, eh? Because food this good shouldn't be ours alone.
2/9Fat Rice
If paella escaped from Spain, sailed to China, and did some soul-searching along the way, you’d have the namesake dish at Chicago’s Fat Rice.

The martini cart at Jeffrey's will also make a cameo at the party. You should definitely try that at home.
