City girl Guneev Sachdeva, who is currently studying at Welham Girls’ School, Dehradun, has won the eighth season of the Young Chef India (YCI) Schools.
Guneev competed with 30,000 students from over 2,800 schools across the country. The event has been conceptualised and executed by the International Institute of Hotel Management (IIHM).
Young Chef India Schools (YCI) is a platform to provide opportunity to higher-secondary students about the workings of the culinary industry.
Expressing her elation, Guneev said, “I can’t believe that I’ve won YCI Schools 2018. I’ve seen my seniors do exceptionally well in the earlier editions of the competition and I wanted to perform like them and make my school and city proud.”
“My ultimate aim is to become a pastry chef. Initially, I want to explore and excel at all kinds of cuisines, be it main course, desserts or starters,” she added.
