Food festivals are the new ways to spend a day filled with fun. For those who thought it is a fleeting fad, the trend is here to stay. Let's admit it, we're hungry for new options, yet always busy to try them (read: lazy) and so to have it all under one roof is definitely an attraction. 2015 was the year of many festivals that brought passionate foodies together. Before touching the hearts, palates and plates of food lovers in other cities, The Grub Fest, a brainchild of young entrepreneurs - Aman Kumar, Arjun Jain, Chaitanya Mathur & Mani Singh Cheema, is all set to head back to its base camp – JLN Stadium in Delhi, where it was unveiled for the first time. Last year,  foodies got to witness two successful editions of the festival in April and October, at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi and the Ambience Lawns in Gurgaon. This time, they promise that the show will be bigger, tastier and even more entertaining. Here's all that you can look forward to at The Grub Fest Delhi -What to Eat - You'll be spoilt for choice.
