After working for about 120 minutes, Some of them came up with highly creative dishes like cheese gooftgu, corny chicken, lamb’s chops while some dare to cook and present the traditional Patthar ke Gost. We witnessed complete amalgamation of innovation, blend of spices and the right degree of cooking. There were participants from first year, second year and just one participant from final years. Saurav Pant, the only one participant from the final year, who could take out time from the campus interview and prepared an excellent paneer Lababdar. This competition is a plateform for the budding Chefs who actually present their imagination on to a Plate. There was also a positive sign in terms of participations from the girls, as about 40% of the participants constitute the girls. The prepared food was presented in the Student Dining Hall and was evaluated by Four chefs of the college. The dishes were marked on the basis of different parameters – Plate Presentation, Innovation/Authenticity, Portion Size & Accompaniment, Degree of Cooking & Flavour . The efforts of the budding chefs were appreciated by the Principal - Mr R K Bhandari and several other faculties of the college. After the marking and a question answer session by the judges Harshit Dhall was given the Title of Student Chef of the Year who impressed every one with his ancient Indian Preparation of Patthar ke Gost. His cooking style, the blend of spices and the ethnic presentation helped him to score 129 marks out of 160. The innovative Chitresh was the runner up with 122 marks who amazed everyone with his imaginative use of popcorn with Fish and presenting the tasteless noodle in his own blend of spice. Overall, it was a great show by the budding chefs and hope they will keep surprising everyone with their imagination & creativity.
