But why should Georgia have all the fun? For one night only on May 5, he's taking over the Tasting Table Test Kitchen in Soho for a feast inspired by his latest book, The Broad Fork ($35). Get your ticket ($200, plus tax, per person) for the one-of-a-kind dinner—which includes a signed copy of the book.

Acheson's hyper-seasonal menu is crafted to highlight the best of the farmers' market bounty, with passed apps and four courses, which will include a Southern artichoke dip, spring onion risotto, braised veal cheek with crushed peas and gremolata, a strawberry-rhubarb pie and plenty more. It's all paired perfectly with custom cocktails, specially selected wines and after-dinner drinks—not to mention a Q&A with the chef.

Appetite whet? Nab your tickets now, and while you're waiting for May 5 to arrive, make a batch of Acheson's smoky, nut-studded roasted poblano and pecan guacamole and learn more about why Tasting Table recently dubbed him The Pot Stirrer.
