Namaste! 

Meet Chef Krishna 

a.k.a Bal 





Chef Krishna aka Bal who decided to follow his passion for the love of great tasting food, created a career for himself within the food industry in Trinidad. He loves experimenting with different styles of food and as such he deems himself to be marketed as a chef that is an expert in Asian type foods. He comes from an Indian background and his ability to play with the different spices and flavors to enhance any dish has truly been a major contributor to him developing his skills. 


He has 14 years experience of being a chef. He describes himself as innovative, creative, hardworking and dedicated. His food specialties are in Japanese, Thai, Indian and Chinese foods. Some of his famous signature dishes are Rainbow Roll, Honey Chilli Chicken, Hakka Noodles, Sandong Fried Rice, Salmon Flower Rolls, Chicken Red Curry, Chicken Sata and Veggie Tempura.

Are you a Vegetarian? Vegan? Or simply just fasting for the upcoming Hindu festival of Divali? Then try, Chef Krishna's Veggie Tempura dish which is so delicious and satisfies all those taste buds that craves something delectable during this time of fasting.
This amazing veggie tempura platter consists of an array of fresh vegetables such as red and yellow bell peppers, broccoli, cauliflower and mushrooms coated with a tasty well-seasoned batter and then deep fried to a light golden color that glows like a plate of gold.





I enjoyed this crusty crumble of vegetables dipped in the accompanying low sodium soy sauce seasoned with sesame seeds. This lovely vegan platter was garnished beautifully with carrots, beet root and celery which was creatively shaped into flowers by Chef Krishna to fully complete his amazing vegan dish. If you ask me, it is definitely a must try for everyone :)

  3. I like that he carries a vegan dish. It meets the more recent and growing diets adopted by many locals..

    1. I totally agree with you with respect to veganism being a new growing trend as many of my friends are vegans and they almost never get anything to eat when we go out. So it really is a great act of Chef Krishna and his employer Bottles & Bites to carry vegan dishes in their menu!
