The Delhi chapter of the
International Wine and Food Society (IWFS) was inaugurated on Sunday, 2nd
August with a Champagne Dinner at Le Cirque restaurant, Hotel Leela Palace.
Global Brand Ambassador and Asia-PAcific Chair, IWFS, Yvonne Wallis specially
flew in for the event.
Founded in London in 1933 by André Simon, the International
Wine & Food Society is the oldest, independent gastronomic society in the
world. More than 6,000 members are spread across three zones – Asia Pacific,
Europe, Africa and the Americas.
The objectives of the Society include bringing together
like-minded people who believe that an understanding of wine and food is an
essential part of personal wellbeing and health. Another objective is to
promote education and knowledge of the wines of the world, and a more
discerning appreciation of wine.
Said Yvonne Wallis, “I have no doubt that, as with the Bombay
Branch, the Delhi branch will set a very high bar indeed as it explores the
mysteries and miracles of wine and food and positions India as a very special
hub for IWFS.”
The evening (as the pictures attest) was grand success with a
stellar line-up of Champagnes paired with a specially crafted meal by
the gifted chef at Le Cirque.
