Join Louisiana Cookin' for the 2026 Chefs to Watch Awards Dinner — an intimate evening celebrating the rising culinary talent shaping Louisiana's food scene. Each year, our editors recognize a select group of chefs who are pushing boundaries, honoring tradition, and bringing something entirely new to the table. This is the night we raise a glass to them.

Guests will enjoy a multi-course dinner featuring dishes prepared by the Chefs to Watch honorees themselves, paired with an evening of great conversation and the kind of food that reminds you why Louisiana cooking is unlike anything else in the world.

Thursday, October 8

6:30-9:30 PM
The Greenwood · A Southern Hotel Property
