Chef Tejal is a culinary creative whose journey spans continents, cultures, and cuisines. Born in Hong Kong to a family that loved to eat and explore, she began cooking as a way to capture the flavors of her travels. In Bombay, she founded The Cantonese Kitchen, blending her Hong Kong roots with local Indian ingredients, and launched The Secret Supper Project—an underground dining experience built entirely on surprise. Her time as a private chef in Singapore further honed her skills and broadened her appreciation for Southeast Asia’s diverse food traditions. Now, she offers weekly meal prep, special occasion menus, and private dining experiences designed to delight and surprise. From comforting classics to bold new experiments, she crafts unforgettable meals tailored to every taste and preference.
