CHEF RAJESH THAKUR
Brings a refreshing approach to Indian food culture
With his culinary creativity and a true passion for food, Rajesh brings vast experience and creativity in Modern Indian Food with a focus on a refreshing, enticing and innovative palate
Growing up in the countryside on the west coast of India, I was surrounded by fantastic ingredients. I’ll always remember my addiction to lip-puckeringly sour sorrel from the garden.
I originally trained as a chef and working for many years in all manner of kitchens and food businesses. The market gave me a solid grounding in high-quality cooking and a passion for top ingredients.
A man of few words but an artist known for his bold culinary leaps. I opened VEDA in Tenafly, NJ, where we served interpretation of new-age Indian cuisine. A truly unique contemporary Indian cuisine pop-up restaurant. It’s a BYOB Restaurant!!
