Calling promising young chefs from New South Wales and Victoria: the Good Food Guide Young Chef of the Year Award judges want to hear from you.

Chefs aged under 30 based in NSW or Victoria can enter the contest for a chance to join previous winners, a roll call of some of this country's most influential chefs, including Brett Graham (the Ledbury, London), Lauren Eldridge and Adam D'Sylva.

Five finalists from each state will be chosen to appear in front of a panel comprising three industry veterans and a senior Good Food Guide critic. They will be interviewed and asked to cook a dish that best highlights their skills.
