Neethling's dish, Tribute to the Khoi-Khoin Taras
"This recognition is deeply personal and significant to me," said Neethling. "Sustainability isn't just a trend, it's a responsibility to regenerate, preserve and pass on the knowledge that connects us to nature and to each other."
Juliane Caillouette Noble, Managing Director of The Sustainable Restaurant Association, noted: "Zanté's signature dish is not only a carefully sourced tribute to South Africa's ancestral roots, but also a roadmap for how chefs can lead in building a more ethical and equitable food system."

This prize, selected by the competition's mentors, celebrates the young chef whose signature dish best reflects harmony between tradition and innovation. Wynants impressed with his plant-based take on a global classic, Dutch 'Rendang'
"With this dish, I want to show that worldly flavours can be achieved with products from our own country or region," Wynants said. "This dish is entirely based on vegetables and fruits and contains no animal products. By doing this, we challenge ourselves and demonstrate that the same flavours can be achieved without using animal ingredients."
Mentors from the competition commended Wynants for a dish that demonstrates how sustainable sourcing and cultural storytelling can come together in a refined and contemporary expression of gastronomy.
Chef Nicolás A. Lopez of the United States has been awarded the Fine Dining Lovers Food for Thought Award , promoted by Fine Dining Lovers. This is the only award in the competition decided by public vote and recognises the young chef whose dish best expresses their personal beliefs and values. Lopez was selected from 15 regional finalists for his ability to use his dish, Pork with Hints of the Sea , to communicate a compelling narrative and emotional resonance that connected with audiences worldwide.
"This dish reflects my journey, from local pubs to fine dining, and the lessons passed down by the chefs who inspired me." Lopez said. "I pushed myself to use unfamiliar ingredients and techniques, while embracing a sustainable approach that minimises waste and honours every element on the plate."
The three awards reflect the S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy's ongoing commitment to supporting young culinary talent who are not only skilled professionals, but also ambassadors of change, sustainability and cultural dialogue. The winners will be formally awarded at the Grand Finale, where the overall S.Pellegrino Young Chef 2024-25 will be announced in front of a Grand Jury consisting of seven internationally recognised chefs.
