The most respected and sought after culinary title, the National Chef of the Year is back for 2011.
The crème de la crème in the industry will meet in a live final to be held at the Restaurant Show at Earls Court 2, London, on Tuesday, October 11 2011.
The competition, which has now switched to an annual format, has helped support the careers of many past winners including Gordon Ramsay, Mark Sargeant, Kevin Viner, Simon Hulstone and last year's winner Hrishikesh Desai of the Lucknam Park Hotel, near Bath.
The Craft Guild of Chefs' National Chef of the Year (NCOTY) competition, which is now in its 39th year, is open to all chefs over the age of 23 who work in any sector of the catering industry. This includes hotels, restaurants, pubs, universities and contract caterers.
Celebrating the multicultural nature of the UK is the key aim of the competition and the revised format, which was introduced last year, is certainly helping to showcase that desire. This year the categories will be divided up as follows:
- Asian/Oriental
- Modern British/European
- Rest of the World/Other
