Morristown, NJ, April 14, 2013: The same great tastes, entertainment, and excitement that have made the Varli Food Festival such an acclaimed success over the past three years was showcased at the Hyatt in Morristown, NJ on Sunday, April 14th, 2013 with a brand new focus: teaching kids to eat right and cook Indian! This year’s event marked the first time kids were included as part of the festivities and with over 700 people in attendance, there was a little something for everyone. Kids were kept captivated by activities including coloring, dancing, and puzzles, while parents enjoyed an array of tasting booths with signature dishes from over 30 restaurants. The highlight of the event was the Junior Cook-off where five kids experienced their fifteen minutes of fame as sous-chefs to some of the industry’s culinary greats. It was true must-see theatre as the kids flawlessly assisted each world-renowned chef in creating a unique paneer-based dish. The final winners were decided by a panel of judges including food writers and celebrity chefs like Jehangir Mehta, owner of NYC restaurants, Graffiti and Mehtaphor. Participating Sous-Chefs were Diya Singh, Ishaan Jagiasi, Vrishank Khanna, Sonia Virmani and Naisha M.Puri. The event was a true first step in inspiring the next generation of culinary industry titans. Proceeds from the event will go to the Diya Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing food, education, and medical aid to children across the world.
