Around 20 mothers and their children aged between 6 to 12 years participated in the workshop and learned to cook a three course meal along with beverages from Masterchef India semifinalist Parul Khaitan. After the cooking lesson, the participants were also taught how to lay the table and basic table etiquette. The event was an initiative of Salt Food Festival in association with Gyanjee Caterers.
Some of the dishes which were taught to the participants included Spinach Olive Open Sandwich, Italian Papri Chat, Kumpir, Caramelized Onion on Puff Pastry, Pina Colada and Orange Souffle, among others. Talking
