The James Beard Media Awards named Erwan Heussaff a media pioneer in the food sector on Sunday, his latest triumph as a restaurant and Filipino content developer.

The FEATR Media creator received the award-giving body's Social Media Account category, which has been termed the "Oscars of the culinary world" by many.

Heussaff's fellow nominees in the category, which "recognizes excellence in a single food-related post or compilation of up to three posts," were Nom Life's Andrew Huang, Ewa Huang, and Jeromy Ko, and Kalamatas Kitchen's Andrew Huang, Ewa Huang, and Jeromy Ko.

"I'm still shaking. We made it!" he captioned his Instagram post.

His wife, cinema legend Anne Curtis, was among many who complimented him in the comments, saying, "Dahlia and I are so proud of you, mon amour," referring to their daughter.

Heussaff was among those honored at the James Beard Foundation's Media Awards presentation on Sunday (Manila time).

On June 5, a separate awards presentation for the restaurant and chef categories will be held, with three Filipino culinary talents competing for prizes.

Chef Aaron Verzosa, a Filipino-American, has been nominated for Best Chef in the Northwest and Pacific. Archipelago, his Seattle restaurant, is noted for delivering inventive Filipino-influenced cuisine.

Established in 1990, the James Beard Awards honors food industry pioneers.

Book, broadcast media, journalism, leadership, and restaurant and chef are among the award programs.
