At the fourth Tasting India Symposium (Dec 17 & 18), held at the India International Centre, Lodhi Road, what dominated the agenda was to make smart cities in the country, food smart. To showcase this, there were many discussions held and fares exhibited that upheld the philosophy behind it; go green, eat climate smart, try zero waste and support local farmers who bring in fresh, healthy produce. Just the right event to end the year with.
