I did not anticipate the judges enjoying my food, nor did I expect to progress so far in the competition. Despite striving to improve, I battled with persistent self-doubt. Over time, that self-doubt transformed into self-assurance. As someone who is typically reserved and introverted, developing that confidence was a personal triumph. I had the opportunity to meet numerous individuals and acquired invaluable knowledge from them.”

The event concluded with Nayanjyoti Saikia thanking Radisson Blu Guwahati for hosting him and expressing his desire to collaborate with the hotel in the future to showcase the region’s cuisine to a global audience.
