The contest’s objective is offering future chefs the opportunity to test their creativity and technique by reinterpreting a traditional dish.
Transgourmet Ibérica, dedicated to hospitality and local supermarket distribution, launches the first edition of “Transgourmet Jóvenes Chefs”, a gastronomic competition aimed at rewarding and showcasing hospitality school students’ talent. Catalonia will be this initiative’s starting point, aspiring to grow and reach training centers throughout Spain. The competition will feature Torres Brothers, Sergio and Javier, the company’s Horeca channel image, who with 3 Michelin stars will be part of an exceptional jury alongside Javier Martínez, chef of Castell Peralada restaurant, also Michelin-starred.

Selection Process and Contest Phases

The winner will receive a trophy and an exclusive stay in Torres Brothers’ kitchens..
The call for Catalonia’s hospitality schools will be open until October 10th, and each school can present one student accompanied by their tutor. Applicants must complete the registration form and send their recipe along with a photograph of the proposed dish. From this material, the jury will select the contest’s 10 semifinalists. Those chosen will visit a GM Cash center to stock up on necessary products and present their dish at Gastronòmic Fòrum Barcelona, from November 3rd to 5th, before the jury in a maximum time of 30 minutes. Only five will advance to the grand final taking place on December 3rd at Mirador Petit del Castell de Peralada, where finalists will have two hours to prepare their dish live.
