2024 Chefs to Watch Dinner - Louisiana Cookin'

In a state with such a storied culinary heritage, the best chefs uphold
our time-honored customs while keeping an eye toward the future.

Louisiana Cookin’ introduced Chefs to Watch in 2002 as a way of recognizing talented up-and-coming chefs from restaurants around the Bayou State who show passion for traditions while delivering fresh, new concepts. This year’s lineup of Chefs to Watch includes both Louisiana natives and transplants who draw from the state’s bounty of fresh, local ingredients as well as their own personal experiences. Join the 2024 Chefs to Watch for a special nighttime dinner event. The 2024 Chefs to Watch will be cooking Thursday, October 10, at The Greenwood in Covington, Louisiana. A portion of the proceeds from the event will be donated to Northshore Food Bank.
