Jeetendra Kumar: A Culinary Alchemist's Odyssey:
Chef Jeetendra Kumar brings over two decades of culinary mastery to The plough kitchen, with experience spanning acclaimed restaurants and luxury hotels across the UK and India. From earning the Egon Ronay Award at Maharaja in Birmingham to leading celebrated kitchens such as Diya Royal in Bedfordshire and Angrezi Dhaba at Gatwick, his journey reflects a balance of innovation, tradition, and leadership. His passion for flavour has shaped everything from intimate fine-dining menus to vibrant food festivals, and his work has even been featured in the BBC Food Magazine. Today, he channels this legacy into Rusper, blending British seasonal produce with refined Indian influences to deliver memorable dining experiences.
Chef’s Exclusive Creations: A Fusion of Art & Flavour
Every dish at The plough kitchen carries Chef Jeetendra’s signature touch — where bold fusion meets refined craft. Guests can savour specialties such as the Kashmiri Smoked Lamb Shank, slow-braised to perfection in a rich Rogan josh, or the playful Beetroot Galouti Slider with cucumber raita foam. His Pistachio Lamb Kofta in a coconut-cardamom velouté and the indulgent Truffle Malai Broccoli showcase his talent for marrying Indian spice with contemporary European flair. These creations are more than meals; they are stories on a plate, designed to surprise, delight, and linger long after the last bite.
