While chefs are rewarded, few people bother to reward the discerning gourmets who, by celebrating cuisine and good food in all its forms, contribute to the perpetuation and growth of gastronomy.
We've turned the tables, and now instead of the restaurant, it is the Gastronomer we reward, and the restaurants that give their opinion. Chefs, maîtres de salle, sommeliers and other restaurant professionals can propose their champion..
Do you have a great Gastronomer who has visited your restaurant? Is there one you've accompanied to restaurants and who left you in awe by his or her intestinal and spiritual dexterity? Let us know using the attached form.
First, tell us a bit about yourself. Are you proposing as an individual or restaurant?
Now, about the candidate you want to propose. If he or she prefers to keep remain anonymous, please provide a nickname.
