Speech of Nazrul Chowdhury
Principal-KCAC:

Leaders are born to lead, not only to dream or show the path of life, but to build the highway to achieve the goal of life!!

Chef Khalilur Rahman is such a leader who always goes extra miles to establish his mission goal in the world of fine Culinary Science & Arts. To start with, I must say who is Chef Khalilur Rahman and his contributions to the state of Culinary.

Chef Khalilur Rahman is a Bangladeshi National who got the US Presidential Biden’s Lifetime Achievement Award and the acknowledgment of US President signifies him a brilliant national recognition. He is the owner of Khalil Biriyani House in USA and The US President cedes this honor to recognize outstanding community services and monumental contributions to society.

In Bangladesh, Mr. Khalil did his masters in Mathematics at the University of Dhaka. Subsequently, he moved to the USA in 2008. The Chef in him soon started Khalil Biriyani House, a tiny eatery in the Bronx. The restaurant soon sprawled into Khalil Halal Chinese, Khalil Pizza & Grill, Khalil Sweets, and Khalil Super Market under Khalil Group.
He creates loads of jobs for countless immigrants. Besides, the Khalil Foundation keeps busy with diverse charitable functions. He launched “Biden Biriyani” after the President’s name. Inevitably, the recipe turned him into a hot topic in the community.

A dreamer, Mr. Khalil has imagined himself to be a skilled and professional chef all along. Driven, he found himself in the Institute of Culinary Education, New York, for formal learning. The institute controls food quality across New York. The course took him four years, and he became a certified Chef in 2018. He has been involved in the culinary industry for too long despite recently initiating Khalil Restaurant. To many, he is the Khalil Bhai, he is a certified professional chef of international cuisine.

A deep association with tasty foods keeps him going. Those potent factors must have played crucial roles in securing a home run in the business. A fresh and healthy diet is the critical element if you ask.

Lately, he has established the Khalil Food Foundation. Their mission is to train fresh immigrants. So, those newbies can sustain themselves. Here, millions come to seek bread and butter. Various difficulties rough up their path to wholesome employment. The Khalil Food Foundation levels out the earning prospects of those newcomers by imparting personalized culinary training.
He emphasizes his battle-rife days in the past, “He thinks, his life can teach others a lesson that no profession is negligible. Hard work brings success no matter what. His traditional Bangladeshi foods become commonplace delicacies across American and European tables. He is a very professional Chef and successful businessman. This dual role boosted his good fortunes by a great length as he needed no Chef to run the kitchen. His restaurant prospered because he had a trailblazing career as a chef.

The Presidential Award made him mellow. Ever gracious, Mr. Khalil thankfully remembered his community’s love and support throughout the journey. He considers his accomplishments a Bangladeshi success in abroad. His fundamental target is to make professional Chefs with a vast knowledge of International Cuisines!!
