| Chef Mukesh kumar with President of India |
This kitchen is called--"The President House Kitchen, India". Cooking in a house is an action, in a five-star hotel it is an art (Skill) but cooking in the kitchen of Rashtrapati Bhavan is an exam, and in it you have to get 100 marks out of 100. These are the words of Montu Saini,who was the head chef there.When our President hosts a foreign political guest, every dish served on the dining table represents our country. Since such feasts are held to strengthen diplomatic relations, they are called food diplomacy.Montu Saini's job was to maintain India's dominance of food diplomacy with innovative and delicious dishes. Now that job is being taken over by his successor , Head Chef Mukesh Kumar, who also has the same talent as him, there is no doubt about it!!!
Mukesh Kumar is the head chef. He has 28 assistant cooks under him. When a grand banquet is to be organized in honor of a dignitary, the preparations are started several days in advance, just like a wedding.First, information about the preferences of the dignitary is collected. This is not as easy to read as it seems.Because the list of likes and dislikes can be very big or small and it is very difficult to choose from it, because your small mistake becomes breaking news, and it doesn't take long to reach every corner of the world and this matter cannot remain without being printed in every country, that's why the menu is not decided without knowing the likes and dislikes of the VVIP guest!!! Whether the guests have any allergies or not is known in advance.So that that substance is not used, only then do the head chef and his team decide on the dishes, from soup to dessert. another important thing is that they should feel like they have come to India, so the food is recreated by adding Indian elements to the dishes.Only then does a foreign guest feel like they are getting something new!!!! This is the Master Key of food diplomacy....(to be cont....)
