The cooking contests included competitions in Continental, Indian, Arabic and Chinese cuisines as well as in preparation of desserts. Cooking without Fire, Wow the Master Chef, Taste & Win, and Make & Eat competitions added to the allure of the food carnival. The Junior Chef contests and Kitchen Queen contests were highly competitive affairs that drew an enthusiastic response. Winners of the culinary contests, and participants alike, walked away with valuable gifts, cash vouchers and certificates.
