Turns out that Seattle is now the place to go for amazing Southern food at a restaurant run by a French-trained chef. Edourado Jordan scored the most coveted loot at last night’s James Beard Awards \u2014 the so-called Oscars of the food world\u2014taking home Best New Restaurant for Seattle\u2019s buzzy JuneBaby<\/a> and Best Chef: Northwest for Salare<\/a>. Jordan\u2019s first restaurant, the French-Italian Salare, was followed by JuneBaby, which Jordan says tells the story of Southern food in America.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m able to tell that story 3,000 miles away from where it first landed on American soil, and people are hearing me and understanding what I\u2019m trying to do,\u201d Jordan told us. \u201cIt\u2019s an amazing feeling to be in the Pacific Northwest and have a Southern restaurant that people are listening to. I think with Salare and JuneBaby, we\u2019re waking up the country that Seattle is a force to be reckoned with from a food standpoint.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other big James Beard Award winners of the night were Gabrielle Hamilton of New York\u2019s<\/a> Prune<\/a> for Outstanding Chef, Camille Cogswell of Philadelphia\u2019s Isreali-themed Zahav<\/a> for Rising Star Chef of the Year, and Birmingham\u2019s Highlands Bar & Grill<\/a> for Outstanding Restaurant.

8 Popular Destinations Where Air Pollution Could Ruin Your Trip<\/h2>\n

Air pollution does a lot more than cause canceled or postponed vacations \u2014 it kills millions of people worldwide every year, according to the World Health Organization<\/a>. Some of the worst places for air pollution are also home to bucket-list-worthy sights. But missing them might be the least of your problems if smog ramps up during your visit: Symptoms of air pollution sickness include nausea, coughing, headache, itchy eyes \u2014 and air pollution can cause long-term breathing problems.<\/p>\n

Here are some of the worst destinations for smog, especially if you already suffer from asthma or other respiratory problems.<\/p>\n

India<\/h4>\n

The Taj Mahal attracts thousands of travelers every day, but the city it\u2019s in is one of the worst in the world for air pollution. Smog in Agra can cut visibility so dramatically that you can\u2019t see much more than an outline of the giant tomb, and visitors who don\u2019t cancel their trip during a period of heavy smog can be seen wearing face masks to visit.<\/p>\n

Agra, however, isn\u2019t the worst place in India for smog: Delhi, Mumbai, and Calcutta are known to have some of the worst air quality in the world. Even lesser-known India destinations are affected by smog: the city of Jodhpur, which attracts tourists to its colorful and quaint \u201cblue city,\u201d has also been known to suffer from poor air quality.<\/p>\n

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia<\/h4>\n

Hoping to spot historic forts and towering skyscrapers that draw travelers to Saudi Arabia\u2019s financial hub? Harmful emissions paired with dust storms can create near-unbreathable air conditions that might keep you from visiting. Riyadh is a manufacturing hub rife with cars that, when sand kicks up around the Saudi capital, can see thick smog that greatly blurs visibility and irritates lungs.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles, California<\/h4>\n

\"Los<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just developing countries that suffer from poor air quality. Los Angeles is the worst place in the U.S. for ozone pollution, according to the American Lung Association<\/a>, and the state of California is home to many of the other worst-ranked cities for air quality. Thanks to a combination of cars, the Golden State\u2019s weather and topography, and added smog from less rainfall and more frequent wildfires in recent years, the air quality index is often over 100, which is considered \u201cunhealthy for sensitive groups.\u201d<\/p>\n

Buenos Aires, Argentina<\/h4>\n

The third-largest city in South America, Buenos Aires can get thick with smog on hot summer days thanks to the fact that many cars in the city run on diesel fuel, which burns particularly dense emissions. The city ranks slightly worse than Los Angeles for air quality, according to data<\/a> from the World Health Organization, and slightly better than Paris and Rome.<\/p>\n

Beijing, China<\/h4>\n

\"Beijing<\/p>\n

Crowded China has a reputation for smog, so most travelers to Beijing might know what to expect: crowds in gauzy face masks and buildings with heavy grade air filtration systems. Why? The air quality index here can get as high as the 400s \u2014 and have even surpassed<\/a> the maximum grade of 500 before.<\/p>\n

Paris, France<\/h4>\n

\"Paris<\/p>\n

Paris, which has gone so far as to ban old-model cars (pre-1997) in an effort to go green, is still striving to fight car emissions that contribute to its poor air quality. Paris public transit is free to passengers on days with high smog, a move meant to encourage residents and visitors to ditch their vehicles and instead use the sprawling Metro system to get around. Recently, legislators have even proposed making free public transit permanent<\/a> to improve air quality.<\/p>\n

Bangkok, Thailand<\/h4>\n

\"Bangkok<\/p>\n

Thailand is a popular bucket-list vacation for its awe-inspiring natural wonders and religious sites, but flying into Bangkok brings a heavy dose of urban air pollution. Air quality in the Thai capital can hit dangerous levels that cause residents \u2013 especially children \u2014 to stay inside until the smog lifts, and make masks commonplace.<\/p>\n

Lagos, Nigeria<\/h4>\n

The largest metropolis on the continent of Africa is in the country ranked worst in the world for air pollution. Lagos, Nigeria is infamous for traffic and home to an unreliable electrical grid that means many residents rely on diesel generators instead. The intense sunlight near the equator only worsens the air quality index, making for thick smog and health problems for many of its residents. Lagos\u2019s resort-addled Victoria Island is no exception.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
