Signature Award
The Flame

A trophy shaped like the fire we cook on.

The Pakistan Food flame is our tribute to the chulha, the tandoor and the home stove — the small fires that fed a country. Cast in ruby lacquer and mounted on Kalabagh marble, no two are alike.

Every winner's trophy is engraved on-site with the recipient's name — a chef, a restaurant, a home kitchen — pressed into the marble in gold leaf on the night of the ceremony.

Material Ruby lacquer · Marble
Height 38 cm
Engraving Gold leaf, on-site
Crafted to honour Pakistan’s culinary fire.
