FUN WITH KIDS: Oriental restaurant chain Chowman celebrated Children’s Day with the underprivileged kids of Basha, a charitable organisation, at the restaurant’s Ballygunge address. A cake cutting ceremony was in order, followed by a lunch of Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Hakka Noodles, Kung Pao Chicken and Sweet and Sour Fish. “It was a delight to see the kids enjoy their time and relish the lunch, especially the dessert... vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce. This is the most memorable Children’s Day for me,” said Debaditya Chaudhury, managing director, Chowman. Picture: Pabitra Das
