Namita Nayyar:
How do you go about balancing your work & family life?
Chef Swetha:
Every day of a Chef is always hectic & busy with lots of physical tedious work to do for long hours, that’s at least 12-14hrs a day. The work is never over as it mostly depends on the number of orders or pax involved which have to be completed with absolute perfection, quality & finesse. Fortunately, I got hitched to a Chef who understands the importance of my work & pressures that come along with being a chef which made my professional life much easier. With his support in my daily routine, I can easily balance my personal & work life.

Chef Swetha:
As a Head for Pan India, I take care of the Menu designing, its execution, Training, and Costing, for Compass Group. I plan in advance for any events, festivities, or bulk orders for each & every site by the calender because the bakery team from each place in India has to be briefed & trained accordingly for the same. I even do product customization according to our client’s requirements, for example, it can be budget-friendly, vegan, eggless, or even gluten-free products.
