It’s an Eater World – [View on the web]( Eater Sponsored: Meet the Rising Star Chefs of the James Beard Awards [Insert alt text here]( The James Beard Awards return to the Lyric Opera of Chicago this coming Monday, May 1. Hosted by food fanatic and ABC’s Modern Family star Jesse Tyler Ferguson, the JBA’s will once again celebrate the who’s who of chefs, bakers, restaurateurs and mixologists nationwide. This year, the Awards will explore the ways that technology has strengthened our connections through food — from the blog post that sparks a trend, to the Instagrams that inspire us, and the shared images that become our portal to cuisine from far afield. As a long-time supporter of culinary arts and talent, S. Pellegrino has the illustrious honor of presenting the award for Rising Star Chef of the Year. To be eligible for this award contending chefs must be age 30 or younger, display an impressive talent, and be likely to make a significant impact on the industry in years to come.
