​Mark Webster, the executive chef at the New Theatre Restaurant, was honored as "Chef of the Year" by the Greater Kansas City Chefs Association on Sunday; Webster received the award at the 34th Annual Chefs Benefit at the Muehlebach Hotel.

"The benefit raises money for scholarships," said Webster -- who was also a nominee last year, but didn't win -- "and Operation Breakthrough."

The rules were changed for the voting process this year, Webster said, "so that it wasn't a popularity contest." Nominees were selected based on community involvement as well as their culinary expertise. Webster helps promote the Greater Kansas City Chefs Association -- which has over 400 members -- by writing for local Tastebud magazine and he served as chair for last year's regional convention of the American Culinary Federation in Kansas City.

Chef Mark you have to be one of the top five Chefs in the area. I've tried your food at the New Theatre Restaurant and its fabulous, but your food when you compete is out of this world. Beautiful plating, perfect sauces and your imagination transforms the raw ingredients into works of art. You are a genius sir!

We love all the recipes that you have written on Tastebud magazine. They are simple to follow and the ingredients are easy to find in the grocery stores. The outcome is absolutely delicious. Thank you for all that you do.
