The Story Behind the Flavours

Originally from the vibrant city of Bombay, Chef Mandeep Saini brings with him a rich culinary heritage and over 15 years of international experience. His journey began in London, where he honed his craft in several esteemed hotels and restaurants, including the prestigious The Berkeley London. Working in a high-pressure, multi-cuisine environment, Chef Mandeep refined his skills and developed a deep appreciation for precision, flavour, and creativity. His passion and dedication also led him to successfully run a pub in London before taking his expertise to Scotland.

In Scotland, Chef Mandeep joined the world-renowned Gleneagles Hotel — one of the finest hospitality establishments in the country — where he further deepened his culinary expertise and strengthened his reputation for excellence. Driven by a vision to blend cultures on a plate, he went on to open the Bombay Club at the Glendevon Hotel in Auchterarder, offering a distinctive fusion of Bombay-style Indian cuisine and classic Scottish pub fare. The restaurant received remarkable acclaim, winning the title of Best Restaurant in Central Scotland in its opening year and proudly remaining a finalist for the past two years.
