🥢 Investing in the Next Generation of Chefs
GALA DINNER & AWARD CEREMONY
At The Hilton Wembly
Friday, April 10 at 6pm
Support the future of hospitality at Zest Quest Asia 2026! Join us at The Hilton Wembley as we empower UK students to master Asian culinary arts. In an industry seeking fresh talent, your support helps arm young chefs with the vital skills they need to lead the kitchens of tomorrow.
Founded by restaurateurs Cyrus and Pervin Todiwala of Café Spice Namaste with the involvement of Master Chefs of Great Britain, the culinary competition recognises outstanding knowledge and understanding of Asian cuisine, and the talent and skill to design and execute an impressive menu of Asian dishes. Since its launch in 2013, Zest Quest Asia has been widely credited with raising awareness and interest in Asian flavours, cooking styles and techniques among a new generation of college-trained chefs, in some cases inspiring former contestants to seek careers in Asian cuisine. College lecturers are encouraged to get involved, by helping to motivate and mentor students who may be preparing classically influenced Asian cuisine for the first time.
The competition also aims to help stem the skills shortage in Asian cuisine threatening the billion-pound Asian food industry, as well as encourage educationists to include classical Asian cookery in the curriculum.
Come and join us to celebrate with the finalists of Zest Quest Asia 2026, who earlier in the day will have competed in a fast-paced cook-off to determine who will be crowned this year’s champions. As well as the top prize of a fantastic culinary journey around an Asian country, there are many other individual categories that the six college finalists will have been fighting it out to win, and all awards and prizes will be announced at the Gala Dinner.
This is an incredibly cost-effective way to entertain clients and/or treat your colleagues to an enjoyable evening with other individuals from the hospitality industry.
Tables of ten are £1,000, and individual tickets £110.00.
The evening will also include a raffle and other games with all proceeds going to the Todiwala Foundation, to promote knowledge and careers in Asian cuisine.

The Goan Soul in the Parsee Kitchen
📅 Date: Friday, 29th May | 6:30pm
📍 Location: Café Spice Namasté
💰 Price: £55pp (plus drinks/service)
For our next gathering on Friday, 29th May, Chef Cyrus Todiwala is exploring a fascinating and delicious chapter of our culinary history: The Goan Influence.
In the early 20th century, Goan cooks and nannies in Bombay homes revolutionised Parsee kitchens. They introduced a coastal soul to traditional Persian-Gujarati recipes—bringing the sharp kick of toddy vinegar, the richness of coconut milk, and a mastery of seafood.
Chef Cyrus will showcase how Portuguese-Goan techniques—from the sharp kick of toddy vinegar to the silky richness of coconut milk and the freshest seafood—transformed Parsee cuisine into something even more vibrant and soulful.
No membership fees—just come hungry. Our bar is ready with signature cocktails to match these bold, coastal flavors. Seats are already being claimed! Don’t miss your chance to experience this unique coastal twist and help us celebrate over 6,500 satisfied “Greedy Pigs” as we embark on our 136th culinary adventure.
All of this is available for just £55 per person (excluding drinks and service charges). We hope you can join us!
