About Chef Syed Mustaque Murshid

Chef Syed, who can trace his roots to 23 generations learnt the fine art of cooking from his mother. The dishes and the recipes were passed down from one generation to another, evolving with the time to suit the palate. Some dishes remained the way they were. The Maachher Kalia, for instance, was always more Bengali than Mughal. There was, after all, very little the Mughals could do to enhance the taste of the rich gravy of a fish curry.

He has also showcased the best of Indian cuisine at various international destinations like Madagascar, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean islands through the famed carnival cruises.
