The 10th edition of the annual food festival promises a plethora of there

Foodies ahoy! The UpperCrust Food Show — an annual three-day long food extravaganza that kickstarted yesterday offers a bunch of gastronomic delights. “The idea is to always raise the bar. And with each passing year we have been succesfully doing that. Though raising the bar does not necessarily mean expensive food, the show clearly debunks that myth. From high-end food stores to a basic pickle guy, there is everything you could ask for. There are three sections — the gourmet and food part; the wine zone and the tech and gadgets section,” says Farzana Contractor, organiser. This annual food fiesta in the city brings under one umbrella hundreds of national and international food products, as well as top chefs who give cookery demos, talks by celebrity hoteliers, restaurateurs and people from the F&B business. Says Farzana, “For anyone who loves food, this is the awesome place to be — to shop for food in the company of so many food lovers!” Some of the participating chefs include Chef Vineet Bhatia, Chef Haji Mohammed Farooqui, Chef Wilson Chung, Chef Kelvin, and Chef Ranveer Brar. Celebrated foodie Rushina Munshaw Ghildiyal will be conducting a chefs workshop for kids (above seven) on Sunday. From noted foodlover Prahlad Kakkar conducting a fun food quiz to chocolatier Zeba Kohli’s chocolate-making workshop, the event has something to offer to everyone. Highlights of this years show are Japanese sauces and ingredients by Maido India, a unique range of home products like — by HouseProud.in, interesting pickles made from olive oil from ADF, organic products from the Organic Haus sourced from Germany and Belgium, Kawan multi-grain parathas. Frish samosa patti from West Coast Group, Indus Pride, spiced beer from Sab Miller amongst several others.
