Chef Gurjyote Singh Sethi

Darpan News Desk Darpan, 13 Apr, 2023
  • Chef Gurjyote Singh Sethi

Gurjyote Singh Sethi (GJ) is a Canadian Red Seal Chef with over 24 years of Culinary Experience. He has been associated with leading hotels in India, including The Hyatt Regency New Delhi, Marriott Welcome Hotel, Crowne Plaza Gurgaon by IHG, Aman Resorts New Delhi, The Claridges Surajkund, and Vivanta Surajkund.

After working at an upscale restaurant in Scotland, GJ continued to travel the world, exploring with his taste buds, absorbing cooking techniques and building his spice box. 

In 2014, he moved to Canada, where he worked with the Fairmont Hotel and completed his Red Seal Chef certification requirements. He opened his first catering company, GJs’ Kitchen, in Surrey, BC and quickly learned that the Canadian food scene is quite different from that in other countries. He also recognized that Vancouver did not adequately fill the need for the on-demand lunch business, re-igniting his entrepreneurial spirit as he founded Tiffin2G. 

GJ has had the opportunity to cook for several celebrities and dignitaries, including the Honorable Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narinder Modi, the former Defence Minister of Canada, Jason Kenney and many Bollywood stars, directors and musicians.
