While in college, I stayed in a hostel that served a delicious variety of vegetarian meals. I will never forget that amazing vegetable biryani they served. I can still taste it whenever I go down memory lane.
It is important to me to make sure that all my guests enjoy a variety of food on our menu - especially since the UAE is such a cosmopolitan country. I am constantly challenging myself to create new dishes that will impress and satisfy our guests.
I would like to cook for Michelin-starred chef Massimo Bottura, and serve him one of my favourite Italian dishes: Veal Ossobuco Tortellacci with truffle Parmesan fondue. He has greatly inspired me through his achievements, which include opening a diverse portfolio of award-winning signature restaurants and creating classic recipes such as Parmesan Balsamic.
I try to eat out as often as possible, as I love to try different cuisines and keep myself up to date with all the new restaurants in Dubai. Morimoto Dubai is one of my favourites. Best known as Iron Chef, Chef Morimoto is known for his outstanding and unique style of presenting food as well as for creating a great harmony between authentic Italian and Asian cuisine.
Crab curry, South Indian-style.
I would like to create a dish that combines the simplicity of Italian cuisine with the complexity of Indian flavours.
Fish sauce - because of its strong taste and smell.
Yes, indeed! I love to cook for myself - even though my days are busy at the hotel. I like to spend time in my own kitchen after work and it is the meal of the day that I enjoy most.
I would love to have pan-seared branzino. It's a very healthy fish that can easily be incorporated into a tasty, homemade Indian dish as well.
I really admire Chef Uwe Micheel, president of The Emirates Culinary Guild, as I started my career under his visionary leadership. I will always be thankful for his tips and the guidance he gave me throughout that time.
Malaysia - the street food is an absolute temptation, a must-try for anyone with a taste for all Asian flavours.
Somewhere that lets me enjoy the sandy beaches in Dubai.
