Dallas-Fort Worth has two finalists this year for a James Beard Award, considered the Oscars for restaurants.

Who's who: Maggie Huff is a finalist for the national outstanding pastry chef or baker award for her work at Lucia, a Michelin Bib Gourmand recipient.
The intrigue: Fort Worth didn't have any semifinalists.
What's next: The winners will be recognized at a June 15 ceremony in Chicago.
