A late evening phone call bearing great, surprising news from writer Tim Ebner was greeted by screams and the popping of champagne corks.

A long time Edible DC contributor, Tim Ebner, the magazine’s The Buzz columnist covering cocktails had just won the prestigious International Association of Culinary Professionals award. The IACP awards recognize the very best food writing and publishing of the year, and Tim had just won the 2020 award for Best-Beverage focused column. Other nominees were Food & Wine’s Ray Isle and Edible Jersey’s Danny Childs.

Because of Covid shutdowns, the IACP awards were delayed from March and given out virtually on Saturday, October 24th. Tim and his wife, Heather, were able to watch the live stream announcement and let the Edible DC team know.
