International Exhibition of Culinary Art

The International Exhibition of Culinary Art (in German: Internationale Kochkunst Ausstellung or IKA), termed the Culinary Olympics, is a quadrennial chef competition, and the biggest culinary exhibition in the world.^[1] Last held in 2020, the event has in recent years been organised in Stuttgart, Germany.

Though the Bocuse d'Or of France is frequently referred to as the culinary equivalent of the Olympic Games,^[2]^[3] it is biannual and not separated by an olympiad, i.e. a period of four years.
