Career as a Chef gaining ground in India Well said is the proverb that says “The way to one's heart is through stomach.� Similarly food has quite ably made its way to our heart as a career option. Till few years back, if a boy used to express super interest in cooking, his parents would have gone red with anger presuming the pending doom in the boy's future and in the same scenario a girl's parent would have simply felt a little down but then its ok, as they can get her married and settle the matter. However, there is a vast change in the scenario today. Thanks to the cookery and the chef talent hunts that get telecasted in the television at India and abroad that the people today opened up to the career in food making. The celebrity chefs like Sanjeev Kapoor, Vikash Khanna, Kunal Kapur have paved an aspiring path and exemplified as to how one can manipulate the interest and love for food and it make it into a highly esteemed career.
There are number of cullinary schools today in India that teaches or rather I would say 'perfects' the art of food making in a person. The hotel management courses too have cooking classes in their courseware. As career of a chef is gaining grounds in India, a professional course is always a better to begin a career in this segment. The starting pad in this career is generally the position of Trainee Chef as which one can start working in hotels and resorts and also night clubs and bars and can earn something in between 10k to 20k. However, as you one goes up, there is certainly no limit to the earnings. However, if one is interested in food but not quite OK with doing the real cooking, they too can find their career in the world of food. A food enthusiast can make a career as Recipe book writer, Food Blogger, Cookery show host, Cuisine ship caterer, Airlines caterer, Event caterer, Wedding caterer and this are just few of the many career choices one can get in the world of food. Saying so, I must say, now there is no need to get one's leg pulled for being a great foodie. If you love food, go ahead, flaunt it and make a career in it. I guess that the best one can do being a lover of food.
