Vivek Singh on 25 years of The Cinnamon Club

Vivek Singh has spent the last 25 years redefining what Indian fine dining can be. As the chef behind London's iconic Cinnamon Club, he joins the Good Food podcast to reflect on the restaurant's remarkable journey, the dishes that changed perceptions of Indian cuisine and the stories that have shaped his career.

Along the way, Vivek looks back on growing up in eastern India, where community celebrations revolved around home-cooked food and recalls the Bengali wedding meal that introduced him to the prawn curry that remains his favourite dish to this day. He also reveals his biggest kitchen disaster, the surprising ingredient he thinks is overrated, and the guilty pleasure he can't resist.
