Gonzalo Santiago Bautista from the Mexico, who was awarded the Gold Prize, said; “I am very happy. I would like to convey my gratitude to the organizers, the people I work with at our restaurant, and also to my family. I look forward to taking this prize home and further spreading Japanese cooking in Mexico.”
In the final competition at the “3rd Washoku World Challenge”, entrants prepared the compulsory “Furofuki Daikon” (within the time limit of 60 minutes) and their original creations (within 90 minutes). The panel of judges, comprising six experts who represent the washoku industry, determined each of the three prizes: the Gold Prize, the Original Cuisine Prize, and the Assigned Cuisine Prize, while the Harvester Prize was decided by Hiroshi Ijiri, president and CEO at Deco-pon Co, Ltd, a company that connects farmers with consumers, which had been involved in the production of the daikon ingredients used at this competition.

“We hope the 10 entrants who advanced to the final competition will take another look at the appeals and the potential of washoku as they compare Japanese cuisine and our food culture with their counterparts in their respective countries and communicate its appeals, not only from the Japanese perspective but also from a global view, ” said Hidemichi Sato, Parliamentary Secretary for Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, as he spoke about the future spread of Japanese food and food culture abroad.Source:
