Gourmands crown the best chef in the world, and we set off on a quest to discover the secrets of the culinary masters...
Choosing to close elBulli for six months in winters, during which time they created and reinvented recipes for the next season, Ferran, in an earlier interview with us had said, “It is not a question of being courageous, but a question of whether you’re free; for if you’re free then only you can be creative.” It seems that under Franco and his predecessors’ callous domination, culinary freedom was the only vent for Spaniards who have given the world delicacies like tapas, paella, flan and churros and have taken three out of the five top positions in the world’s best restaurants list this year!
If, creativity is all it takes, it is not surprising to see the imaginative aces of one domain experimenting with dishes from around the world. The restaurant chain, Veda has been conceptualised and set up by renowned fashion designer Rohit Bal to bring out brand India through a wide range of “truly Indian delicacies”. Cultural mingling has led to the diffusion of the Indian taste in restaurants and that’s why, “Veda has kept an ancient feel in the restaurant’s ambience and the right flavour of spices to keep the exact Indian taste, what you often get by not experimenting with the recipe,” tells Vishesh Nanda, Manager, Veda.
Well, I don’t care whether we reach the ‘world’s best lists’ by holding tight our old traditional ways or by adding changes to them in moderation or by developing all-together new flavours, I only demand to see India at the top of these lists!
