Quality and Tradition

“At the centre of the culinary programme is Chef Azaan Qureshi, representing the third generation of the celebrated Qureshi Khandan, widely recognised for preserving and elevating the tradition of Dum cooking in Indian gastronomy. He is the grandson of Padma Shri awardee Chef Imtiaz Qureshi, the visionary behind the iconic Dum Pukht cuisine at ITC Maurya, and the son of Gulam Moinuddin Qureshi, who has safeguarded and refined the family’s culinary traditions for decades. Having grown up surrounded by the discipline and patience that define classical Dum cooking, Chef Azaan carries this legacy forward while presenting his own interpretation of heritage cuisine for contemporary diners.
