Manish Thapliyal – Executive Chef at Radisson Resort Ras Al Khaimah wins the Hotels Executive Chefs – Food Safety in Charge Award by the Ras Al Khaimah Municipality!
We are so proud of our Executive Chef, Manish Thapliyal for winning the Hotels Executive Chefs - Food Safety in Charge Award by the Ras Al Khaimah Municipality. This recognition is more than just an award – it is a testament to every checklist meticulously followed, every training session diligently conducted, and every standard consistently upheld behind the scenes.
From the Heat of the Kitchen to the Honor of Recognition, Manish’s love for food began with a simple curiosity – a desire to create, connect, and make people happy through what’s on their plate. That passion flourished when he earned his B.A. (Hons.) in Culinary Arts from the University of Rhodesfield, UK, in 2010.
He then began his culinary career with the Taj Group in India, and in 2010 and relocated to the UAE, where he had the privilege to advance his skills with renowned hospitality brands such as Le Meridien, The Westin, Madinat Jumeirah, and InterContinental Dubai Marina. Additionally, he played an integral role in the pre-opening phases of three major hotels – InterContinental Dubai Marina, Radisson Blu Dubai Waterfront, and Radisson Resort Ras Al Khaimah, contributing to the design and establishment of their culinary operations from the ground up.
Today, as Executive Chef at Radisson Resort Ras Al Khaimah, he oversees six diverse outlets and lead a dedicated, high-performing kitchen, stewards and hygiene team. Together, they have launched guest-centric initiatives such as innovative F&B promotions, themed buffet nights, seasonal and personalized tasting menus, as well as impactful sustainability programs including food donations in collaboration with the UAE Food Bank.
