Times Food launches web series ‘Boardroom Kitchen' with CEOs in the kitchen

Not all business decisions are made in the boardroom with a team of suit-clad, experienced executives ̶ some can be made wearing an apron and white chef hat, over chopping vegetables and cooking lip-smacking delicacies. This is exactly what is happening at Times Food’s Boardroom Kitchen, India’s first reality web series that portrays CEOs of famous companies in the kitchen, enjoying the time off to cook and having interesting conversations with celebrity mentor chef Aditya Bal.

The weekly web series is live on timesfood.com. The first season of this reality web series is set to have six episodes. The bigwigs who are a part of Season 1 episodes are Devendra Chawla, CEO of Spencer’s Retail, Sandeep Aggarwal, Founder & CEO of Droom Technologies, Varun Gupta, Director of Kent RO, Samir Modi, CEO of Modicare and Dhiraj Malhotra, CEO of Delhi Capitals. The show will present the little-known personality traits of these successful head honchos in front of viewers who are interested not only in the culinary field but also in leading businesses.

Speaking on the potential of this innovative show, Puneet Gupt, COO, Times Internet, said, “Food is the perfect recipe for great conversation - and what better way to take have an insightful peek into the lives of some of the biggest names in the Indian business sector than while cooking great food together. We are excited to be bringing the inaugural edition of the Times Food Boardroom Kitchen for foodies and business enthusiasts across the country where they catch startup founders and business CEOs hanging out in the kitchen chatting, joking and sharing personal stories.”

“I had a blast cooking and chatting with Aditya. As an entrepreneur, it's hard to miss how cooking and leading a business are so much similar in the way that they both need the great blend of ingredients to turn out well. I sincerely hope viewers would love the show," Boardroom Kitchen guest Sandeep Aggarwal, Founder-CEO at Droom said.

This unique mix of food and business is presented by Glen Appliances and powered by Figaro Olive Oil. The International Institute of Culinary Arts is the culinary expertise partner for this web series.
