We are incredibly proud and excited to announce that our Sous Chef, @yashmhadgut, will be competing in the 2026 @sanpellegrino_youngchef Canadian Competition. 🇨🇦🇮🇳

Born and raised in Mumbai, Yash has built an impressive culinary journey, working alongside some of Canada’s top restaurants and chefs before becoming an integral part of the Kavita team.

Now, he takes the next step onto one of the most prestigious stages for young chefs in the world. 👨🏽‍🍳

For the competition, Yash will present an elevated interpretation of a classic Maharashtrian dish, bringing together the flavours and stories of Maharashtra’s coastline and British Columbia’s coast two places connected by their deep relationship with the sea, produce, and culinary traditions.

We couldn’t be more excited to see Yash represent his roots, his craft, and the Kavita family on this incredible stage.

Go Yash! We’re behind you all the way.

Somewhere between leaving home and finding our way back, the dream grew bigger. ❤️

Years ago, we started with food, curiosity, and a lot of heart.

Then came Vancouver.
New experiences. New lessons. A completely different chapter.

Now we’re bringing everything we learned back home — and building something that belongs to us.

🇮🇳 Mumbai Culinary Company

A piece of our journey, served on a plate.

And trust me… we’re just getting started. 🔥
