Fine Dining Lovers Food for Thought Award

Select the region and vote for your favourite Young Chef! 

We asked the same question to all participants in the S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Competition:
“What message, history and identity would you like to convey through this dish?” 
Now, you are invited to choose the regional finalist who best represents her or his personal beliefs with a dish.  

The Fine Dining Lovers Food for Thought Award regional winners will be announced during the regional finals.  
You will be able to vote again, for the global winner of this award, just before the Grand Finale in 2025.
Check the S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy website for all updates on the competition. 

You can only vote once, therefore make your vote count! 

Happy voting!
