Hyderabad, Telangana, 17th of December 2025 : Final-year culinary students of Regency College of Culinary Arts and Hotel Management, Irramanzil, organized a Vintage-Themed French Gourmet Gala Lunch on 17th December 2025 at the Radiance Restaurant. The event featured an elegant seven-course pre-plated Table d’Hôte (TDH) menu, inspired by classical European cuisine and executed to professional fine-dining standards.
Such gourmet gala events form an integral part of the students’ academic journey, enabling them to conceptualize, plan, and execute large-scale culinary operations. Through these platforms, students develop expertise in menu engineering, artistic presentation, time management, and coordinated service – key competencies required in the global hospitality sector.
The gala presented an elaborate culinary spread, including over 50 varieties of charcuterie and cured meats, a refined cheese display, a visually distinctive Smörgåstårta (Scandinavian savoury cake), an artisan bread counter, and thoughtfully curated salads and hors d’oeuvres. The décor reflected a carefully designed thematic transition from vintage charm to contemporary elegance, symbolizing the seamless blend of tradition and modern gastronomy.
A signature highlight of the event was the Butter Swan Sculpture, intricately carved from 10 kilograms of butter, showcasing exceptional precision, creativity, and aesthetic sensibility. The sculpture exemplified the students’ technical mastery under the expert guidance of Chef Naga Manikanta.
The event was graced by distinguished guests:
· Mr. Gareth Wynn Owen, British Deputy High Commission
· Chef Naveen Nagaraj, Corporate Chef, Tatva & General Secretary, Telangana Chefs Association
· Chef Rizwan Abdul Khader, Corporate Chef, Terrai & Executive Member, Telangana Chefs Association
Principal Mr. P. Ramesh Kumar Reddy appreciated the dedication and professionalism displayed by the final-year students in delivering a refined gourmet experience. He highlighted that the institution’s emphasis on industry-relevant exposure and experiential excellence plays a pivotal role in shaping confident, skilled, and career-ready hospitality professionals.
