[#Milan #Spyca2025 #sanpellegrino #sanpellegrinoyoungchef] The three best dishes of S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Grand Finale 2025 according to the Grand Jury. ✨ Winner for Asia region: Chef @theardiffer Ardy Ferguson x mentor @chefvickylau from @mora_hongkong* « Culinary Archipelago » reimagines Indonesia’s nasi tumpeng - a yellow cone-shaped rice dish with meat and vegetables - through the lens of Hong Kong fine dining, where Indonesian-Canadian Ardy Ferguson works at @belonhk. He chose to serve this emblematic rice dish with a complex version of lacquered duck, and accompanied it with a rich coconut gravy on duck spiced sate. ✨ The other two dishes: France was competing with Antonis Avouri and mentor chef @alexandremazzia, from AM restaurant*** in Marseille. With “the consequences of our actions”, they were reflecting about the impact of human actions on the planet. “As chefs we have a responsability. We don’t have to waste ressources. And we also have to work with invasive species like blue crab » said Alexandre Mazzia. Cypriot @antonis_avouri offered a silky dish playing on blue crab and squid, and inspired by gemista (stuffed vegetables) from his country. Noah Wynants @noahwynants, a Belgian chef from Leuven, who was competing for North Europe with his mentor @nelsontanate from @delibrijezwolle*** was praised for his entirely vegan Dutch Rendang. Usually made with beef, it was reimagined here with organic vegetables coming from the Netherlands, like eggplants and shiitakes, crunchy pumpkin seeds and a « very comforting sauce that binds everything together » said @chef_julien Royer member of the Grand Jury. 02 Nov 2025 We’ve done it again: we’ve shaped the future of gastronomy. 💥​ ⭐️ @theardiffer is the Best Young Chef of the S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Competition 2024-2025!​ Ardy, with his mentor @chefvickylau, brought his future to the table with an inspiring, transformative spirit.​ What a journey, one that began months ago and culminated yesterday with the announcement from our incredible Jury.​ Congratulations to all the young chefs, mentors and jurors from around the world whose talent, creativity, and dedication made this edition so unique.​ #Sanpellegrino 30 Oct 2025 AUGUST, Jakarta - On October 23rd I had the privilege of cooking alongside some of the most talented Chefs in Indonesia @hanschristian_, @ardikadwitama, and @valliannn.

Run by Chef Yoshiro Kiyama, the meal was great from start to finish. The first course was one of my favourite. Peanut kudzu tofu with vinegared fish, fried ginkgo nuts, and trout roe. The Ayu fish tempura course was a close second! Amazing hospitality and food.
