Chef Sanjeev Kapoor has partnered with Taj Group to distribute over 5,000 specially made meal packets per day for medical staffs in Kasturba Hospital, KEM Hospital and Sion Hospital in Mumbai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEvery day, more than 5,000 food packets \u2013 being made and packed at TajSats are being delivered as a gesture of gratitude to the white coat warriors of Mumbai,\u201d he said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the same time, the Chef also banked on innovative gig economy strategy \u2013 by partnering with restaurant owners and caterers to use their facility and limited staff to cook for the needy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While Sanjeev arranges for the staples and vegetables \u2013 through a donor-led approach; the meals are prepared by the local kitchens and restaurants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The First pilot was started and funded yesterday by Sanjeev himself, wherein Pratap\u2019s Dhaba in Andheri West, Mumbai came forward to cook Khichadi for 1,000 poor daily wage labourers. The distribution of the same was managed by Roti Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s the time to give back to the society; to strengthen those who are fighting with this pandemic on humanity\u2019s behalf as well as to look after those who have been hit hard by this lockdown\u201d, Sanjeev said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have been lucky to have credible partners with equal concerns and sense of responsibility. The initial response has been very good from the restaurant and catering industry and we hope to extend these measures to Delhi too within a week\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Being associated with AkshayaPatra for a few years now, Sanjeev is also in discussions with them to reopenAkshayapatra kitchen in Thane, which has been closed due to the lockdown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
