Dinner: Softshells & Spirits: A Southern Crab

Feast with James Beard Nominee® Jamie Davis

Peak-Season Softies Meet North Carolina Craft Cocktails

Celebrate softshell crab season with chef Jamie Davis, executive chef of The Hackney in Washington, North Carolina, and a James Beard Award nominee® for Best Chef: Southeast. Known for his ingredient-driven take on coastal Southern cuisine, Davis has earned national recognition for spotlighting Eastern North Carolina’s rich culinary traditions.

At the height of their season, softshell crabs take center stage across a multi-course menu that highlights their delicate sweetness and crisp, briny richness in creative, unexpected ways. Each dish will be paired with expertly crafted cocktails from The Hackney Distillery, showcasing botanical precision and bright, refreshing profiles designed to complement the nuances of crab.

This one-night-only dinner will feature a cocktail reception with passed hors d'oeuvre upon arrival, an expertly crafted multi-course menu with thoughtfully curated wine or beverage pairings, and a Q&A with the featured chefs.
