Chef	Ravi Krishna - RAVI KRISHNA a qualified professional culinary chef, is from southern part of India, was trained and worked at the major Five Star Hotels in Hyderabad (the capital of Andhra Pradesh, India) where he, at the young age of 24, established himself as one of the leading chefs of his generation. His passion and the confidence in culinary studies brought him to Auckland in 2002 with a goal to establish a restaurant of its class to symbolize ethnic legacy in authentic and traditional Indian dishes. His mastery was soon recognized; by the envious age of 26 he was appointed as a key chef at one of the quality restaurants in New Zealand. This doubled his confidence and inspired him to establish his identity sooner than predicted, that is when ATHIDI was born.
