SÃO PAULO CHEF JANAÍNA TORRES IS NAMED THE WORLD'S BEST FEMALE CHEF 2024
Torres is also deeply involved in social activism projects, having worked with São Paulo's government to train school cooks to improve the nutrition of 1.8 million children in just four years. During the pandemic, the chef engaged her community by mobilising thousands of Brazilian chefs and hospitality workers to pressure the government for vital financial support for the industry.
A Casa do Porco, the restaurant co-owned by Chef Torres, is famous for its inventive, no-waste, nose-to-tail pork menu and placed No.12 in The World's 50 Best Restaurants 2023 list.
William Drew , Director of Content for The World's 50 Best Restaurants, says: "It is a true privilege to announce that the incomparable Janaína Torres is named The World's Best Female Chef 2024. Her contribution to establishing Brazil as a leading force in the global gastronomic industry cannot be underestimated, and her philanthropic projects highlight an ongoing commitment to her community. This award is in recognition of her talent and deep commitment to driving positive change."
Chef Torres says: "I am delighted to have been named The World's Best Female Chef 2024, and to join the incredible list of those who have been awarded before me. I hope to inspire the next generation of female chefs and to continue to build a legacy for Brazilian gastronomy, alongside my community. To me, this award represents an important platform to bring visibility for education through and for food, which I consider essential for a fairer future in my country and around the world."
