Cook To Destress was an amazing initiative organized by Daamini and The Astor Kolkata.

The initiative aimed to make cooking fun for the participants. The participants not only had fun cooking but they could also reduce their stress levels through this activity.

Sanchita Kushary Bose from Daamini said “We all are stressed in our ways. Whether we are working or are homemakers, all have been stressed out. Through this event, I wanted people to relax through cooking. We have kept mystery boxes for each table. The contestants will open them and have to cook a salad and a main course dish with those ingredients in the box. It will be fun for them and help reduce stress”.

Also gracing the occasion was Amit Kobat, GM of The Astor, Kolkata.

There were different teams consisting of three members. The team were as follows:

Team Chefs- Palak Chatterjee, Ishani Priyadarshani and Debjeet Majumdar
