As executive chef of Lemon Tree Premier, Delhi Airport, Vasu Venkat Reddy’s core responsibility includes kitchen planning and execution, along with menu planning of any upcoming Lemon Tree hotels in the region. He is also part of the product standardization, innovation and audit team. Since attrition is the biggest challenge he faces in managing his team, he constantly focus on training to improve skills and maintain consistency in food.
Luckily for him, the brand’s comprehensive training encompasses one-on-one sessions, demos, classroom instruction, etc, which is imparted to every team member regularly. Additionally, ‘Chef tasting sessions’, random ordering and audits are organized to ensure all chefs stay alert and hands-on. Team members are routinely sent to other hotels across the country to gain exposure for region-based cuisine trainings.
