Supah Chef 2013

 Its all about the ladies here at Marco Polo this merry month of March! Having just celebrated International Womens Day last March 8th and Mothers Day coming up on the 21st , we thought it 'd be the perfect time for the annual Supah Chef Cooking Competition.

On March 23, Marco Polo Hotel will once again host the  gathering of the  most  creative women cooks of Dubai  for this one-time cook-off contest which will pit the cooking talents of women from different nationalities , 18 years and above.

The competition which will take place at the ballroom, will see food focused women who will try to create the most unique and healthy chicken dish. Major prize for this event is  a banquet party for 30 friends catered by Marco Polo at any venue of their choice in Dubai. Runner up winners will also win exciting prizes. The new recipes that will stand out will be featured in the restaurant menu of The Bombay, which is the best part of the competition. 

Here are some photos from last years contest:

In the Gregorian calendar, Diwali falls between mid-October and mid-November.

It is also a celebration of life (good over evil) , spending time with loved ones and cleansing oneself in preparation of the year to come.

With all the family together, good food and lots of it is a certainty as well as a necessity.
