Every town has its share of chefs that make the A-list with foodies. A few weeks ago I had the privilege of sampling tasty dishes prepared by the Jacksonville five (pardon the pun) — Ted Peters and Nancy Slatsky of Azuréa, Tom Gray of Bistro Aix, Matthew Medure of Matthew’s and Brian Siebenschuh of Orsay. The gathering, a benefit dinner for the Friends of the James Beard Foundation, had the chefs cooking and laughing it up in the kitchen as a camera projected the behind-the-scenes action on screens in the dining room at One Ocean Resort Hotel and Spa in Atlantic Beach.
