BINDER SAINI

Executive Chef

"I saw right before my eyes how authentic Indian cuisine could be reimagined to a gourmet level, into true works of art," said Binder when asked about his early mentors.

With Kurry Qulture, my goal is to introduce Indian cuisine to a new generation, and challenge what Indian food could be. "A visit to Kurry Qulture is like a food tour of India; it's not just hot and spicy, you'll discover new flavor palettes from all parts of the motherland, from the coast to the northern regions. At Kurry Qulture, I've been given the freedom to create food I've only dreamt of, to bring unique combinations of fresh vegetables, spices and authentic ingredients to the plate of every guest."

Binder was born in Punjab India, educated in Dubai and is now a resident of Elmhurst, Queens and loves the energy and vitality of New York City. "The nightlife, the music and sounds of the city, the restaurants, New York City is alive with food from every corner of the globe, a 'world on a plate' and the best place to be if you're a chef like me."
