“For me, Food For Thought Fest allows you to seep into the conversation about food a little deeper, and when this happens, your relationship with food becomes stronger.”

“Food sustains life, encourages thought, nourishes the intellect, and expands your horizons. Above all, good food, tastily made and tastefully presented, is a pleasure to view, consume and reflect upon.”

“An exceptional entrepreneurial initiative that uses the passion for gastronomy to bring South Asian nations together. Building meaningful cross-border connections through food is truly admirable.”

“I think this is what the S.A.A.G. Food for Thought festival is all about. It goes beyond food; it stays centered on food and multi-layered food for thought, food for the soul, and so on.”

“For Indian chefs in the West, staying rooted is vital for sustainability. This event in Ahmedabad was a wonderful opportunity for me to reconnect, rejuvenate, and heal my spirit.”

“At the outset, I would like to congratulate the S.A.A.G team for hosting the Food for Thought Fest. This convergence of ideas, flavors and cultures from the South Asian region will bring this part of the world closer.”

“I am very happy to be here today and to be a part of this conversation on such a lovely and unique platform.”

“The Food For Thought Fest is truly one of the standout festivals of our time. It creates a fantastic platform for celebrating 'real food' and brings together chefs from neighboring countries like Nepal and Bangladesh to showcase the unique culinary heritage of their lands.”

“The Food For Thought Fest is just a great event for bringing a lot of countries together.”
