Exclusive Interview | Dinesh Pai, Pastry Chef at Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai
How did it all start? Share your culinary journey with us
I was always passionate about working in Luxury hotels and working as a Chef. My father & I would cook lunch on Saturdays and Sundays. We dint have much Culinary tv shows at that time, but what I can recollect was magazines showcasing charismatic and vibrant colours.
I used to work part-time as casual while studying at my hotel school in IHM Mumbai to keep up paying fees. So I had a fair idea about the industry.
After completing my studies they offered me a job at Grand Hyatt Mumbai as an employee. I was working as a baker doing night shift baking bread, croissant and morning bakeries.
Then I joined Four Seasons Mumbai pre-opening and then down the line I was transferred to many Four Seasons brands in the Maldives.
