Special health writer's award
As there was no winner in the new up-and-coming health writer category, a special health writer's award was given to Christa Swanepoel who has consistently provided well-written and balanced health articles and has given excellent coverage to eggs.
The Galliova Awards honour the country's outstanding food writers for their excellence in food writing, food styling and the overall promotion of SA's food culture as well as local health writers for their writing excellence and balanced reporting on health and nutrition issues.
This year's judging panel included Dorah Sitole, former True Love Food Editor and cook book author; Anna Montali, former Food and Deputy Editor of Food & Home Entertaining; Jackie Cameron, chef, tutor, writer and cook book author; Hetta van Deventer-Terblanche, author, culinary manager at Pierneef à La Motte Restaurant in Franschhoek and judge on kykNET's Kokkedoor TV show; consultant dietitian Madeleine de Villiers; and emeritus associate professor in nutrition and dietetics and part-time consultant, Martinette Stretch.
