The true contentment of a meal cooked well is like nothing else. đ Today being International Chefs Day, weâre sending a word of deep gratitude to the chefs who inspire us and have us sampling the most interesting meals. (Our moms too!)
Weâre so chuffed and proud of our very own Swarup Solgaonkar, Corporate Chef at McDonaldâs India (West & South), who wears many hats!
At McDonaldâs India, we know Chef Swarup to be bold, meticulous, and passionate when it comes to his art and knowledge of condiments, flavours, sauces, and spices. đ¨đ˝âđł This contributes to super menu innovations and product development at McDonaldâs India… Like the latest McDonaldâs Double Patty Burger, BIG YUMMY BURGER!
Taking a cue from our recent customer feedback, Chef Swarup thought BIG… Big, saucy, yummy, and oh-so-fulfilling. Â And he âdeliveredâ on these sssSssstacked burgers he developed, that pair premium ingredients with great patties. Wait, that is not all! Donning his on-screen performer hat, Chef Swarup has made his presence felt on screen too, as he has not just starred but aced it in our Big Yummy Burger TVCs. Chef Swarup is a star not just behind the scenes but on screen as well! Take a look, watch the magician, we mean chef, we mean actor, we mean Chef Swarup himself!
