Winner: Cured
306 Pearl Parkway, Suite 101
(210) 314-3929
curedatpearl.com
Founded in 2013, Cured is more than a name — it’s a nod to chef Steve McHugh’s journey from cancer survivor to culinary star. It’s also a bold reference to the house-cured meats that made the Pearl hot spot a must-visit. As famous as the James Beard-nominated chef himself, Cured invites diners to build their own charcuterie boards stacked with anything from 90-day pork belly to pickled pimento cheese and country-style pork pâté. McHugh’s obsession with fermentation runs so deep, he wrote the book on it, literally: Cured: Cooking with Ferments, Pickles, Preserves and More.
