The Culinary Club at IIM Calcutta is a vibrant community of food enthusiasts united by a shared passion for food, culture, and meaningful experiences. More than just a club, we are a platform that brings people together through culinary creativity, celebrating how food connects, inspires, and creates lasting memories.
Throughout the academic year, the club curates a diverse range of experiences that enrich campus life. From hands-on culinary workshops and cultural food exchanges with CEMS students to festive celebrations featuring traditional prasad, we strive to showcase the diversity of cuisines and the stories they carry.
Our flagship events include Mandi, a campus food festival organized in collaboration with MarC, where members prepare and serve a wide variety of cuisines. We also organize Tandoori Nights, an annual barbecue event that combines great food with social impact through collaborations with organizations such as JBS BaroC and Shiksha.
Whether you're passionate about cooking, love exploring new cuisines, or simply enjoy bringing people together over food, the Culinary Club offers a space to create memorable experiences and celebrate the joy of food.
At its heart, the Culinary Club is about bringing people together. Whether you are an experienced cook, an adventurous foodie, or someone who simply enjoys sharing meals and discovering new cuisines, the club offers a welcoming space to learn, create, and celebrate the universal language of food.
Because at the Culinary Club, we don't just serve food - we create experiences.
The culinary club endeavors to generate interest in the creative and diverse culinary heritage by bringing together enthusiastic people about food and its preparation. Food is quite obviously an ever-bonding factor for students, and we see great potential in this SIG that would not only have people of diverse cultures displaying their culinary skills but also encourage novice cooks to learn the art and contribute to building it as a hobby.
The Culinary Club aims to
- Create a space (community kitchen) for students to dabble in the art of cooking.
- Introduce students with no prior culinary experience in cooking.
- Organize activities to promote healthy, sustainable cooking and dietary habit
In a world that is fanatically chasing convenience and a world where efficiency is the pagan god at whose altar we have already sacrificed so much of life’s simple charm, the Culinary Club at IIM Calcutta will be an effort to push back. An effort to allow students here a chance to take a step back in their day and reconnect with their food and themselves. An opportunity to take the inconvenient, inefficient route to food, for a chance to create, express, learn and connect.
