United States, 8th May 2025 — Chris Taylor, a passionate local chef and dedicated sous chef based in Litchfield, CT, has advanced to the next round of the prestigious 2025 Favorite Chef competition, a national culinary contest presented by renowned chef Carla Hall. Representing Millerton and the greater Hudson Valley region, Taylor is currently a Group Finalist — one of only a select number of chefs nationwide to make it to this stage.
The Favorite Chef competition is known for spotlighting culinary professionals who not only demonstrate extraordinary skill in the kitchen but also serve as positive influences in their communities. The grand prize includes $25,000 and a featured article in Taste of Home magazine, a nationally recognized publication celebrating the best in American home cooking and professional food artistry.
“This opportunity means the world to me,” said Taylor. “Being able to showcase my love for food, my creative approach, and my connection to this community on a national stage is something I’ve always dreamed about. I’m incredibly grateful for the support I’ve received so far and hopeful that our community will continue to rally behind me.”
Chef Taylor, who has spent the last decade working in professional kitchens across the Northeast, has earned a reputation for bringing creativity, bold flavors, and heartfelt hospitality to every plate. His culinary influences range from traditional Southern comfort food to modern New American cuisine, often incorporating local and seasonal ingredients that reflect the Hudson Valley’s rich agricultural heritage.
