Over 100 master chefs are set to take part in this year's Festival of the Banitsa, which is held today in the village of Banitsa in the Vratsa region. The event starts at 11 am at the local community centre, 'Svetlina 1910'.

The culinary treats have been divided into three categories: savoury, sweet, and original banitsa. A jury chaired by TV celebrity chef Ivan Zvezdev will judge these mouth-watering delicacies, according to a Facebook post by the municipality of Vratsa.
