has appointed one of India’s most prominent and awarded culinary personalities, Sanjeev Kapoor, to its International Culinary
Panel (ICP) of world-renowned chefs.
“Our customers will benefit most with the inclusion of Sanjeev Kapoor to the culinary panel. His creativity and innovation with Indian cuisine will be
a welcome addition to the global cuisines already reflected in the ICP’s makeup and add to the variety of menus offered onboard,” said Singapore

India. First started in 1993, the show now has over a staggering 150 million viewers in 60 countries.
Sanjeev’s cooking philosophy is to make Indian food accessible, allowing the novice cook to recreate any meal, from a Maharaja’s (“King” in
English) feast to home cooked dishes, with easy to follow recipes and cooking processes.
Sanjeev has won numerous accolades, among which include the Best Cooking Programme, five times in a row, Best Executive Chef in India by
Food and Hotel Service in 1993 and the “Mercury Gold Award” at IFCA Geneva (1993) for "Best Meal Concept and Creation".

Cookbook, Simply Indian, Konkan Cookbook have received rave reviews.
Sanjeev will join eight existing chefs of international acclaim on the Singapore Airlines ICP in designing distinct signature dishes for Singapore
