BRICS Summit 2026: From Millets to Mithai, What’s on the Menu?
BRICS has evolved into a key platform for emerging economies to advocate for greater representation in global governance, reform international financial institutions, strengthen trade and investment links, and advance sustainable development goals.
New Delhi: The New Delhi BRICS summit will bring together the world's major emerging economies - Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, with multilateral cooperation expected to remain at the core of the grouping's agenda. New Delhi is set to host the 18th BRICS Summit at Bharat Mandapam on September 12 and 13. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will host the summit, which will see the participation of prominent world leaders, partner nations and representatives of global organisations.
BRICS has evolved into a key platform for emerging economies to advocate for greater representation in global governance, reform international financial institutions, strengthen trade and investment links, and advance sustainable development goals. The summit will be attended by leaders of 11 member countries and 10 partner countries, besides some international organisations.
Amit Biswas, Executive Sous Chef, The Lalit, New Delhi, speaking to PTI said, "So, we are promoting millets at BRICS. As our honourable Prime Minister is focusing on millets, we are promoting millets at BRICS. Moreover, we have kept our breakfast menu in mind considering that we have a lot of guests staying with us. So, we have kept the spice level and the menu in such a way that everyone can enjoy the food. As it is BRICS, we have all desserts and, most of the time, our main course is also created so that Indian food is showcased as being from India. We have used Indian spices, traditional vegetables and farm grown vegetables. We are focusing more on local products and local produce so that our guests can see what is available locally and what people can get in India."
Another Chef at Delhi's Leela Palace hotel on BRICS Summit preparations said, "The menus have been very thoughtfully curated for each and every delegation."
