Courtesy of Chef Ajay Kumar, the soft-spoken chef of the Taj Sawai Madhopur Lodge in Ranthambhore, Ajay developed his passion for cooking at an early age. His first teacher was his father and his first lessons were in the intricacies of traditional Rajasthani cooking.
He specialized in chicken & lamb delicacies and honed his culinary skills to perfection (over twenty years) at a number of fine dining establishments. His last tour of duty was in the kitchens of the exquisite Rambagh Hotel in Jaipur.
The Taj Group then moved him to The Sawai Madhopur Lodge in Ranthambhore where he now delights patrons with mouth-watering preparations from his vast repertoire of delicious recipes.
