Last Day to Vote for Kevin Gillespie for Food & Wine's "The People's Best New Chef"

For all the procrastinators out there, it's your last chance to vote for Woodfire Grill Executive Chef/Co-owner and "Top Chef" contestant Kevin Gillespie in Food & Wine's "The People's Best New Chef 2011" competition -- voting closes on March 1. Show your support for Kevin today!

The newly established contest is an offshoot of Food & Wine's "Best New Chef" title that's doled out to the nation's most promising up-and-coming chefs who have run their own kitchens for five years or less. The contest divides the nation into 10 regions with 10 nominees per region; voters may cast one vote per region. The chef receiving the most votes in a region will be that region's finalist, and the one garnering the most votes overall will win the title of "The People's Best New Chef 2011."

Food & Wine announces "The People's Best New Chef" on March 2 and "The 10 Best New Chefs" in early April on their website, on Facebook and via Twitter.
