We had a wonderful experience hosting the first ever online Men’s cooking competition under lockdown conditions. The participating men had to cook daily for three days either Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner. It was such a treat to our eyes seeing the participants cook some of the most scintillating dishes, be it South Indian, Maharashtrian, Gujarati, Bengali, Punjabi, Mughlai or Western. Their sheer excitement and dedication towards cooking made this whole event a memorable one. The participants were hardly seen to be competing, rather they were sharing their beautiful talent with each other which was beyond any expectations. The unavailability of resources also didn’t dampen their spirits. We at CIC salute each and every participant for being such a sport and taking this cooking task seriously and also ensuring that they enjoyed every moment of it. Here we must mention the wonderful role played by our four judges. They had a daunting take of going through hundreds of photos and videos from all the participants, also having to go through the recipe and give points for every individual cooking in various parameters. The judges were in complete awe of all the participant’s cooking skills and it was very difficult for them to find the top five, wish we could give prizes to all! We also take this opportunity to thank our sponsors for their kind support for this initiative.
