Forming a purpose

Chef Sanklap believes that his eagerness and love for cooking started from home. He also realized it when he excelled in different culinary courses when he was in college.
“I used to cook at home, and I want to cook all my life. Since my college days, I am also excelling in cooking, which led me to become a chef,” Chef Sankalp said.
This great chef got a chance to work in London for two years. Still, after some time, he moved to the United Arab Emirates and worked with different hotels, where he managed to gain experience and learn Italian and Belgian cuisines.
Chef Sanklap attested that London gave him an excellent opportunity to learn about culinary and hotel management. But after his studies, he needed to go home to India, so he decided to move to the Middle East instead.

Dubai life

“I also observed that many chefs from Europe are coming to Dubai,” he added.
When Dubai Vibes Magazine asked him about his Dubai experience as a chef, he said: “Being a good chef always depends on interest and passion. Since I did not have an opportunity to work in India, I had a chance in London to study western cuisines. And nowhere in Dubai, I am cooking more on western food.”
“In Il Pomodoro, they mostly focus on Italian dishes, while in Esperia more on Mediterranean cuisine. My signature dish is homemade lasagna, and our customers love it,” he further explained.
His advice to aspiring chefs is that doing your best is the greatest weapon for success. Opportunities will follow if someone is hardworking.
