Tarun Kumar Lal is a hospitality and food professional with 34+ years of experience across culinary operations, hospitality and F&B consulting.
His career began with the Taj Group of Hotels in 1992, where he trained and worked across professional kitchens before taking on responsibilities in kitchen operations, food production, menu development, training and new outlet openings.
In October 2000, he established Dii Consentes Hospitality, an independent practice built around his experience and passion for food & beverage.
Over the past 25+ years, his work through Dii Consentes has extended across 350+ restaurants, hotels, QSRs and commercial kitchens in India and international markets.
His experience has evolved from professional kitchens and hospitality operations into independent consulting and, more recently, food R&D and product development.
The common thread throughout has remained the same:
Practical experience. Hands-on involvement. An understanding of how food & beverage businesses actually work.
