Chef Atul Kochhar (L), the first Indian chef to receive a Michelin star, slices tomatoes at his Benares restaurant in Mayfair, central London January 21, 2015. Revolutionising the concept of Indian cuisine has been the key to Kochhar's success since moving to Britain as a young chef in the early '90s. He made history as the first Indian chef to receive a Michelin star for his debut London restaurant Tamarind in 2001. Six years later, he picked up another accolade for his second venture, Benares, in 2007. Picture taken January 21. To match story FOOD-CHEFS/KOCHHAR REUTERS/Eddie Keogh (BRITAIN - Tags: FOOD SOCIETY)
