Hiring a Foreign Chef Is the New USP of City Pubs and Bars

Hyderabad:The city is firming up itself as the global party destination given the rising number of MNCs and international institutions that are setting up offices here. Cashing in on this development, the hospitality industry, especially the bistro lounge bars and pubs, is spicing up their range.

The new mantra is to hire proven and popular chefs from abroad, who can come up with delicacies that are the toast overseas.

This has made weekends at several eateries, bars and pubs in Gachibowli, Financial District, Hitec City, Madhapur, Kondapur and Jubilee Hills as lively and zestful as those in many hotspots abroad.

Samet Can, a Turkish chef and sizzler specialist, is elighting customers at the high-end kitchen and lounge bar in Jubilee hills. His deftness at making sizzlers is such that a mobile table cart and a stove are brought to the customer’s table where he prepares the item.

The master chef said, “The people of Hyderabad are highly knowledgeable about a multitude of delicacies. When such connoisseurs relish good food and appreciate our preparations, we feel very happy.”

He added, “I have worked in several countries, But here the people are special. They wish to explore and experience the rich varieties that are popular abroad. Customers (IT professionals) come over from different parts of the county. They interact with us, while we are preparing their choicest dishes. I have noticed that the most preferred Turkish dishes are kebab fire sushi, flambe cheese, wheal pineapple Brulee, fired chocolate ball and the Lamb Chop on flames.
