2024 COMING SOON

StarChefs returns to TKTK to celebrate the city’s most talented up-and-coming food and beverage professionals.

---

The 2022 TKTK Rising Stars Awards will be the TKTK class of Award winners and the TKTK class from TKTK.

The Rising Stars Award winners are designated by the StarChefs editorial team based on in-person tastings and interviews. In each market, the editorial team tastes and interviews with more than 100 chefs, pastry chefs, bartenders, sommeliers, restaurateurs, and artisans, ultimately selecting a group of 18 to 25 professionals who best represent the future of American dining. Although Rising Stars Awards are given out locally, award winners are evaluated according to a set of national standards. Creativity, ambition, presentation, philosophy, and, most important, delicious food, drinks, and/or pairings win the designation of a StarChefs Rising Star.

For more information, visit the 2022 TKTK Rising Stars Awards event page.
