-New York
-With FF chefs having already racked up wins in some of the initial categories, such as Best European, Most Determined, and Best Fresh Face, the NCA released the full list of awards it will render through Dec. 1. A few new awards have popped up, such as Best Dessert Maker and Best Russian. A number of Feast Fest chefs could contend for the former, and Andri Jones and Alexei Aiber could be shoo-one for the latter. In addition, the NCA's Best Still-Studying award, which has been won four times by Assistant Head Sous-Chef Joe Pasik, has been scrapped due to its similarity to the NCA's Most Studious award, which Pasik has cradled thrice, in 2005, 2009, and 2010.
