CHARISMATIC
CHITHAR
For the Xmas, Santa Claus has been his theme; for this he
used salt dough as a base, green and yellow zucchini slices, bell pepper in
different shapes plus sliced tomatoes came in as an embellishment to the
creative piece of Chithar Bohar
(32) (See the pic).
It is nothing new for him. He is a consistent contributor.
The foodies who visit the ITC Gardenia
as well as the room guests have appreciated his work in embarrassingly
superlative language. Come 2015, he will delight the guests with a tree in
Cubbon park,also a peacock sitting on the tree (related theme as the restaurant is known as Cubbon Pavilion) ITC Gardenia,Bengaluru .
For the "nativity scene" which he has created
for the Xmas, (see pic below) he has spent 48 hours of complete focussed creativity.
This is placed just at the entrance of the Cubbon Pavilion Restaurant.
