This International Women’s Day 2016, have a blast at these 6 restaurants in Delhi and Mumbai.Women deserve to be celebrated every day, no doubt. But we love the idea of a day being dedicated to all the beautiful women across the globe. So what exactly is International Women’s Day all about? It started in 1909 as a socialist political event in the United States of America as National Women’s Day, when 15,000 courageous women walked the streets of New York City demanding shorter work hours, better pay and the right to vote. Only in 1911 was it celebrated as International Women’s Day in Denmark, Austria, Germany and Switzerland, and it went global in 1913. Fast forward to today, and women are not only voting but breaking the glass ceiling. The theme for the year of 2016 is “Planet 50-50 by 2030: Step It Up for Gender Equality”. Did you know that it is now an official holiday in over 25 countries and some people even wear purple ribbons to celebrate the day?We salute the indomitable spirit of women across the world in the only way we know best – Food.
