ABOUT THE AUTHOR Habib Rehman

Habib Rehman (S.S.H. Rehman) was born, brought up and educated in Hyderabad. He began his career with the Indian army, which he left as a Major to join the hospitality business, and has spent three decades with ITC. Rehman has researched Indian cuisine and re-created it in a modern context, helping generate global awareness of its nuances and variety. ITC-Welcomgroup restaurants, many of which Rehman has helped set up, are considered icons in the world of international cuisine.In the mid-nineties, his wife unexpectedly brought a pup home and set off a series of events that Rehman could hardly have foreseen. This recounting of the story of that pet, Gori, also includes important milestones of his career, which he capped when he retired recently as director-in-charge of ITC’s hotels, travel and tourism, and food businesses. Rehman continues to be a well-regarded figure in the hospitality industry. He lives in Delhi in his new home, which is a tribute to the architectural legacy of the city, and a memorial to Gori.
