Last year I was the official runner-up in this award. I appreciate the pat on the back, but damn, the money would have made such a big difference. In fact, it would have added an Italian chapter in my forthcoming book.
However, YOU could possibly win. And if you did, wouldn't it be fabulous?
Let me tell you whyI love this award: There are few monetary offerings for those of us who feel food and wine matter. And I never met Mr. Roberts, but I find this patronage heartwarming.
So.......get off your duff and apply.
Trying to show your impact on either the food and wine world and need travel for it? £3,000/$4,500 for food and/or drink-related travel goes to the winner. The deadline is March 31st.
Deadline for applications March 31. http://geoffreyrobertsaward.com/

I was a runner up too (for Jerez)!
