Bengaluru's young food enthusiasts will trade their dining tables for the kitchen counter this September as BigLilChefs brings children aged 7–18 together for a hands-on culinary competition at Bhartiya Mall of Bengaluru on 19 and 20 September 2026.
Far from a typical kids’ activity, BigLilChefs puts young participants in the chef’s seat. They will create, cook and plate their own dishes before presenting them to professional chefs from the mall’s in-house restaurants. Judging the event and guiding the young budding chefs would be Chef Altaf Patel, Head of Hospitality & Corporate at Geist Brewing co & Chef Balaji Balachander from Salt - Indian Restaurant Bar & Grill. The chefs will judge the dishes on taste, presentation, technique and creativity.
The competition features two age groups, each with its own culinary challenge. Little Chefs (7–12 years) will take on a creative no-fire cooking challenge, with dishes such as salads, chaats and sandwiches. Big Lil Jr. Chefs (13–18 years) will step up to induction cooking, putting their technique, timing and flavour skills to the test.
The excitement builds from the preliminary round to the Grand Finale, where the top performers will face a new challenge revealed on the day. The finalists will cook in front of a live mall audience, turning the competition into an exciting culinary showdown.
And it’s not just about winning. Every participant gets the chance to build confidence, experiment with food and experience what it feels like to present their own creation to a professional chef. All participants receive certificates, while the Top 3 winners in each age group will take home trophies and exciting prizes.
So, young chefs, it’s time to tie those imaginary chef’s hats, bring your biggest ideas and get ready to turn ingredients into something delicious!
