Vivek Singh

With a global reputation as one of the masters of Indian fine dining, Vivek Singh’s signature culinary style marries modern Indian flavours with Western techniques. Executive Chef and CEO of three restaurants across London, Vivek Singh is one of the most inspiring Indian chefs of his generation. Almost 15 years ago, Vivek opened The Cinnamon Club in the historic Old Westminster Library, which liberated Indian food from its traditional shackles and crafted a brilliant marriage between Indian flavours and western fine dining styles. He went on to launch Cinnamon Kitchen in 2008 in Devonshire Square and opened the more casual, trendy and relaxed Cinnamon Soho in 2012. Author of five cookbooks including the recent Spice at Home and a regular face on both television and live cookery events up and down the country, Vivek shows no sign of slowing down. In recent years he has launched the Indian street food concept ‘Joho Soho’, a shabby-chic mobile street food stand travelling the country serving spicy, favour-filled dishes at some of the UK’s biggest festivals. Having recently spent £1million refurbishing The Cinnamon Club, Vivek looks forward to celebrating the restaurant’s 15th anniversary in March 2016.
