Another three days

Its one year since the food fest and like the last year, the meeting was countless , of course with wonderful results in the end. With another three days for the fest, this post is for those who involved in making this event a success or a flop.

I know things will be great at the end of the day, but when it comes to planning I see more words than action. It all started with a feed back of previous fest, and after number of meetings the previous meetings minutes just kept fading away. With new faces in the meeting hall day after day, the cartridge in my HOD's printer just kept ejecting indent of ingredients to be purchased with lot many revisions.

With so many indent in hand, many got confused and the solution was arrived with anonymous decision, lot many things went unanswered, forty fillets from one kilo of fish, soaking and grinding the raw rice for Ada when you get it ready made and beautifully packed, and the number of pax to which the cooking happens... All unanswered.

Three different cuisines, thirteen different cultural events, thirty varieties of foods and Three hundred students volunteer. What more is needed to make the minds in to deciding the quantity of dishes to be prepared, and the views of all ,make you hard to distinguish an amateur with a professional . after all every one loves eating and no one can say ,I just breath in air , without taking any food for the living.

Ohhh I didn't tell what are all the cuisines, Its Rajastani, Kerala and Andhra. Its great seeing all great peoples spending their valuable time and energy for this event, and I am very much proud to be a part of it.. This is for a good cause, the profit from the event will help providing free education for students. what more is there in life than a free education to the needy... and people,another three days, the post is about how well the fest went...

too many cooks will spoil the broth, but when it comes to the art of cooking itself and improving the quality of the cuisine, more chefs is no bad at allllllll
