ABOUT : MAD CHEF
Some people know their calling almost as soon as they are born. Some people realize it when they turn five – like Chef Koushik, or The Mad Chef. In fact, for him, the urge to cook and create was more than a passion: it was a compulsion.
Devouring Asterix and Obelix comics inspired his first cooking adventure. At theage of five, this champ went straight to attempting a Cheese Fondue. And got it right. There was no looking back.
School done, he went straight to IHM, Bangalore. He was in the right place at the right time. Indian diners were just beginning to explore new flavours and culinary experiences. Restaurants were THE ‘thing’. The Mad Chef was on a roll.
Small kiosks, wayside bakeries, fine dining restaurants, modern Indian, traditional South Indian, Pan Asian cuisine, casual diners sought him out. With over a couple of hundred projects worldwide under his belt, his magic at the stoves quickly became legendary.
His signature recipes are bold and innovative, experimental, even, each, bringing out new yet harmonious tastes, exploding with personality, or gently unravelling subtle flavours, one after the other.
The Mad Chef’s forays into television have seen him on Masala Express and Thamizhagathin Samayal Champion on Jaya TV, as a Judge on Master Chef Tamil on Sun TV and as a visiting Judge on Cooku with Comali on Vijay TV.
