Charlotte’s own Robin Anthony just landed the city’s only James Beard semifinalist nod this year, putting Prime Fish and its omakase experience in the national culinary spotlight. Even with recent Michelin buzz, Charlotte has never brought home a James Beard award—could this finally be the year? Anthony, a self-taught chef, is known for his Tokyo-style sushi and has quickly expanded his restaurant footprint across the city. It’s a proud moment for Charlotte’s food lovers and a big step for our local dining scene. What do you think—will Charlotte finally break its James Beard streak? #Food #CharlotteEats #JamesBeard
