Ever wondered what the world’s most powerful person — and a self-confessed fitness freak — eats for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Well, in India, Russian President Vladimir Putin was served an exclusive menu with just the right mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes.
ITC Maurya — the preferred choice of most heads of states visiting the country — received Putin, named the world’s most powerful person for the second year running by Forbes magazine, on the night of December 10.
While there was little access to information on drills undertaken for the high-profile dignitary’s stay, the Russian President’s love for Bukhara and Dum Pukht, ITC’s two speciality restaurants, is well known.
A signature menu was prepared for Putin from the hotel’s two restaurants, sources said.
“The star highlights of the menu were mahi sarson, kakori kebab, dum pukht biriyani, koh-e-awadh, jhinga dum nisha, from Dum Pukht; and machli tikka, seekh kebab, tandoori jhinga, onion kulcha, pudina paratha , and tandoori pomfret from Bukhara,” a source said. The 62-year-old President had a “breakfast high on fresh fruit,” the source added.
