The names of the 50 best restaurants of Latin America are about to be revealed at a great event, sponsored by S.Pellegrino and Acqua Panna, to be held in Mexico City on Wednesday 23 September.
For the third edition of Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants, the Academy has selected 252 experts from the catering industry, among chefs, food writers and gourmets; each one of them has been invited to select the 7 best restaurants he or she has visited at least once in the past 18 months.
Furthermore, other prestigious prizes will be assigned at the award giving ceremony of 23 September, such as the Chef's choice Award, the Highest New Entry Award and the Individual Country Award sponsored by S.Pellegrino.
Nevertheless, a couple of Awards have already been assigned.
The Best Latin America's Female Chef 2015 is Roberta Sudbrack from Brazil, who happens to be the only head chef who has managed to achieve a three star rating in the Guia Quatro Rodas, the Brazilian equivalent of the Michelin Guide.
The Lifetime Achievement Award Latin America 2015 has been assigned to Enrique Olvera from Mexico, for having transformed the perception of his country's gastronomy worldwide.
