Calling all chefs under the age of 30 with a passion for making a difference to Sydney's culinary landscape. The Josephine Pignolet Award Panel wants to hear from you.

This award, which has been running since 1990, is a tribute to the late Josephine Pignolet, a young chef who died in a motor accident in 1987, and the wife of chef Damien Pignolet.

Past winners have included Mark Best (Marque), Brett Graham (London's The Ledbury), Dan Puskas and James Parry (Sixpenny).

This year's winner will receive a return overseas flight; assistance with placement in an overseas restaurant; a set of Shun knives valued at $3000; and a cash of up to $20,000.
