Setsun
6-Course Casual Fine Dining Dinner Series
This new pop-up wine bar in East Nashville’s historic Edgefield neighborhood is the handiwork of Executive Chef/Co-owner Jason Zygmont. A Georgia native, Chef Zygmont worked at a variety of Atlanta restaurants before he took off on a five-month sojourn, staging at Noma, Copenhagen’s gastronomic mecca. Next came some New York time at the celebrated Per Se, and, finally, he returned to the South, where he most recently was Executive Chef at Nashville’s The Treehouse. Now, in digs of his own, he is turning out a range of delicious and inventive menu items, including ricotta agnolotti, which Eater named as “Nashville’s Restaurant Dish of the Year.” (Eater went on to say that Setsun’s consistently well-executed menu is “one of the best dinners in Nashville.”) You’ll also love the tuna crudo, beef tartare, Szechuan numbing lamb, and more. We’ll be taking over the restaurant for the evening, and Chef Zygmont will be on hand to discuss how he approaches food and wine. (Obviously very, very well!)
About the Host:
Jason Zygmont
Executive Chef & Co-Owner
A Georgia native, Chef Zygmont began his career in Atlanta, but quickly expanded his culinary horizons, first traveling to Copenhagen to train under Rene Redzepi at Noma, then spending years sharpening his skills in the kitchen of New York's Three Michelin Starred Per Se. He moved to Nashville in 2016 as Executive Chef of the Treehouse, earning Eater Nashville's Chef of the Year Award that year. He left that position in 2019 to open his own pop-up, Setsun.
