X.

Not an X to erase the past.
Not an X to cancel the memories, the people, the ideas, and everything we built over the last ten years.
It is an X to mark a change of direction.
A moment to rethink. To rewrite. To bring The Best Chef into the future.
Some things will change. Some things will stay.
But everything will have one purpose: to make our work better.
Together with our TEAM.
Together with our community.
Together with everyone who has been part of this journey.
The next decade is not about starting from zero.
It is about building on what we have learned.
We are not kids anymore.
We have a bigger backpack of experience, more knowledge, more responsibility and now, maybe, we need to be more ambitious, more fearless and more aggressive in the best possible way.
It is time to make The Best Chef stronger.
More solid. More stable. More authoritative.
To consolidate what we have built.
And to push harder towards what we believe it can become.
The X is a new beginning.
A new chapter we are genuinely excited about.
And before we open it, we want to celebrate the end of the first cycle together, at our 10th edition.
Ten years behind us.
A new decade ahead.
And after all these years, maybe the best thing we can do is become kids again.
Play. Dream. Make mistakes.
And build something we have never seen before.
X marks the beginning. X
Back to being kids.

What does China taste like today?

At Ling Long Shanghai, Chef Jason Liu transforms the memories, flavours and traditions of China into something bold, unexpected and entirely contemporary.

Each course tells a different story.
Each detail challenges what Chinese fine dining can be.

Not a reinterpretation of the past.
A glimpse into the future of Chinese cuisine.

At @maytalima , @jaimepesaque tells the story of Peru through a cuisine that feels deeply rooted yet unmistakably contemporary.

Ingredients, landscapes and traditions from the coast, the Andes and the Amazon come together in a tasting journey defined by bold flavours, precise technique and a powerful sense of identity.

More than a restaurant, Mayta is a vibrant expression of Peru today.

#NEXTGEN 4 ❌ COLLAB 

A highlight of the Next Generation: a collaboration between the hosting chef of Coro Restaurant @ronaldbukri in Orvieto and the winner of the Next Gen Awards 2025, @sebastian.cocina8 from Restaurant Ræst in the Faroe Islands.

A dialogue between chefs that goes beyond pleasing the palate — it opens minds.

This is where cultures merge, ideas collide, and the future of cuisine is not imagined, but experienced. Today. In the present.

@milcentro is not a restaurant.
It’s an experience that shifts your perspective. And quietly, your soul too.

Set at over 3,500 meters above sea level, in the heart of the Sacred Valley, MIL invites you to taste the territory, to listen to it, to study it.
Here, @virgiliocentral doesn’t simply cook: he translates altitudes, ecosystems, and ancestral knowledge into a language made of pure flavors and meaningful silences.

Each dish is a lesson in respect.
Each ingredient exists at the right altitude, in the right place, at the right time.
No loud wow-effects. Just deep, lasting wonder.

MIL is a vertical journey.
From land to thought.
From food to culture.

An experience you can’t really explain.
You have to live it.

THE BEST ❌ THE BEST 

The line between fine dining & 🍕has never been thinner with 🔪 @salvatoremorellochef ❌ 🍕 @bob_alchimista 😎 

When chefs and pizzaioli collaborate, tradition meets innovation — elevating ingredients, refining techniques, and bringing new creative energy to both worlds. 

These collaborations make pizza more expressive and fine dining more accessible.

#THEBEST🇫🇷 PIC VALENCE 

The combination of flavors, the power of tastes and the delicacy of expression characterize my creations. Intuitions and inspirations. 

It’s very important for me to bring together the different worlds that revolve around gastronomy and creation in general, to enrich my cooking and my way of conceiving a dish.
