Celebrity chef Jeremiah Tower curates special Parkway Grill menu Nov. 6-8

The Parkway Grill is already widely regarded as the finest restaurant in Pasadena, and it’s poised for further greatness next Tuesday through Thursday, Nov. 6-8, as celebrity chef Jeremiah Tower prepares a special dinner menu for the eatery, located at 510 S. Arroyo Parkway in Pasadena. Tower will also create several lunch specials in addition to the regular lunch menu.

Winner of the James Beard Foundation’s “Regional Best Chef California” in 1993 and its “Outstanding Chef in America” title in 1996, Tower is considered the first American celebrity chef and is credited with pioneering California Cuisine, which glorified all things fresh and local. The former co-owner and executive chef of the critically acclaimed Chez Panisse in Berkeley, Towers later opened his own restaurant Stars in San Francisco, Seattle and Manila.

Tower has also authored several successful cookbooks, including the James Beard Foundation winner “Jeremiah Tower’s New American Classics” and was inducted into the Nation’s Restaurant News Find Dining Hall of Fame in 1991. He was profiled by Anthony Bourdain in the 2016 biographical documentary “Jeremiah Tower: The Last Magnificent.”
