The winners in each of the sixteen categories, as well as the Cookbook of the Year, will be announced on April 22 at the Awards Gala taking place at IACP’s Annual Conference in Portland, Oregon.

Jenny Hellen, Deputy Publishing Director Random House New Zealand, said that she was “absolutely thrilled that Al Brown had been recognised by the international food community for his brilliant new cookbook, Go Fish.

Go Fish has sold more than 12,000 copies in five months.
