Pune, October, 2023 – The Westin Pune Koregaon Park is thrilled to introduce Chef Rajdeep  Rana as its newly appointed Director of Culinary. With an illustrious culinary journey spanning over  19 years, Chef Rana brings an unparalleled wealth of talent, creativity, and expertise to the vibrant  heart of Pune city. His culinary odyssey commenced with humble beginnings, and he meticulously  honed his skills in prestigious establishments such as Hyatt and Taj.

Chef Rana's time in Japan has been marked by remarkable career highlights. He not only pushed the  boundaries of flavor and presentation but also consistently delivered exceptional guest experiences.  His immersion in Japanese culinary techniques, both traditional and contemporary, has elevated him  

to a coveted position within the culinary world. His expertise extends to the intricate art of sushi making, the precision of kaiseki cuisine, and the delicate balance of Japanese flavors, which he has  artfully incorporated into his culinary repertoire. 

In his new role at The Westin Pune Koregaon Park, Chef Rana's exceptional acumen and keen  understanding of market trends will play pivotal roles in curating elaborate culinary experiences.
