Bon appétit, September 30, 2024

Julia Sullivan is known in the Nashville dining scene for her seasonal American cooking at Henrietta Red. Now the chef is headed about 90 miles southeast to Sewanee, Tennessee, for her first solo endeavor. The James Beard semifinalist will open Judith near the University of the South this fall. The restaurant is named after the first woman to matriculate at the university and sits in the school’s Old Steam Laundry building. Diners will be able to sample hearty dishes like pork coppa with sauerkraut and finish the meal with profiteroles with soft-serve in flavors like honeycomb and pistachio. Henrietta Red’s beverage manager, Patrick Halloran, has come on board to create a list of wine, cocktails, and spirits to complement the tavern-style food.
