Indian Restaurant Congress has set a benchmark among restaurant fraternity for building a world class show on the business of restaurants in India. After 13 successful on ground editions, Indian Restaurant Congress is back with its 14th annual edition. Over the years the show has grown as a premium thought leadership networking platform for the Food & Beverage Community of the country. The show over the years has brought together more than 50,000 food professionals and foodpreneurs from across the world at a single platform.
Global influence is again dominating the Indian restaurant scene, though a little differently now. On one hand, India is seeing more Global Restaurants opening up in India, and on the other hand Indian restaurants are also going Global. The influence of global cultures, business dynamics, and culinary innovation is therefore being felt in the Indian food service market, whether it is design, menu, service, or fusion cuisine. Similarly, Indian restaurant chains that are going abroad are bringing many new aspects of food and service, brand and cuisine to their table. Overall, this is a good scenario as it will bring the edge Indian Restaurants industry to be global and have tomorrow’s Michelin star restaurants coming from India.
