Young Chefs Competition in Istanbul 2026


Chaîne members are looking forward with excitement as the prestigious Jeunes Chefs Rôtisseurs Competition 2026 is set to take place in the enchanting city of Istanbul from April 15th to 19th, 2026. This international young chef’s competition promises to be a spectacular event, bringing together the finest young culinary talents from around the globe.

Istanbul, a city that uniquely bridges two continents, Europe and Asia, serves as the perfect backdrop for this culinary showdown. Known for its rich cultural heritage and vibrant modernity, Istanbul offers a melting pot of traditions and innovations, providing an inspiring setting for competitors to showcase their creativity and skills.

The primary goal of the Jeunes Chefs Rôtisseurs Competition is to encourage and promote the culinary expertise of young Chefs Rôtisseurs in the tradition of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs. By exposing these talented chefs to a competitive environment with their peers, the competition aims to foster growth, innovation, and excellence in the culinary arts.

Participants will have the opportunity to demonstrate their talent and creativity on an international stage, gaining invaluable experience and recognition. The competition not only highlights individual skills but also emphasizes the importance of camaraderie and mutual respect among young chefs.

Representing Great Britain in this esteemed competition is Johan DeSousa, the winner of the Chaîne GB Young Chefs competition. We extend our best wishes to Johan as he embarks on this exciting journey, and we are confident that he will make us proud with his culinary prowess.

Adding to the prestige of the event, our very own Chef Ben PURTON, Conseiller Culinaire – GB, will serve as the Jury Director. His expertise and guidance will undoubtedly contribute to the success of the competition, ensuring that the judging process is fair and rigorous.

As the countdown to the Jeunes Chefs Rôtisseurs Competition 2026 begins, the anticipation continues to build. This event promises to be a celebration of culinary excellence, creativity, and the enduring tradition of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs.
