This year at Night of Ideas, titled "More?", we will explore the multifaceted world of food, including its pleasure, politics, people, palates, and plurality along with a special treat by a Chef from France.
About
The Night of Ideas is a French initiative bringing together prominent thinkers across the globe to discuss major topical issues every year. With this year’s theme intriguingly titled “More?”, the Indian edition, A Night of Chefs & Ideas, will highlight the kaleidoscopic story of food in India – with French accents. Chefs, experts, policy makers, historians, economists, and practitioners will come together for a night of creative thinking.
The conversations – exciting, riveting, thought-provoking – will be moderated by award-winning journalist, editor, and curator, Shoma Chaudhury.
Join us at the Open-air Amphitheatre, Sunder Nursery, New Delhi on 1 March, 6 pm onwards.
For more debate. More diversity. More proximity. More solutions. More bridges. More stories.
And a delicious, specially curated, dinner by a French chef from the Indian countryside.
