After a monthslong selection process by the editorial staff, led by restaurant editor Khushbu Shah, who dined in dozens of restaurants across 23 cities in a matter of weeks to vet the nominations, these 11 new chefs officially join the ranks of elite past winners who have gone on to become icons in their own respects in the hospitality industry.

Shah wrote in the feature story accompanying this year's list that \"it became crystal clear ... the most interesting restaurants were not just the ones focused on cooking the most delicious food, but the ones with a larger mission in mind -- something each member of this year's class of Best New Chefs embodies.\"

She hailed their integrity, leadership, commitment to vision, values, and ambition that has \"defined every class of F&W Best New Chefs\" since 1988.
