Floyd Cardoz. Photo: Mark Abramson/Mark Abramson The great chef Floyd Cardoz reportedly passed away, after testing positive for COVID-19. The cause of death was an infection, and the Indian news website Scroll reports that his family confirms the news, which first started circulating in the Indian media, after the author Rajdeep Sardesai tweeted about it. Cardoz was 59.
Cardoz had admitted himself to a hospital in New York after developing a fever, according to an Instagram post he put up on March 18. The chef had been in Mumbai, where he ran the acclaimed restaurants Bombay Canteen and O’Pedro, and had returned to New York on March 8. The Indian restaurant group, Hunger Inc., with which he ran his Mumbai restaurants put out a statement confirming Cardoz had tested positive for coronavirus.
Cardoz’s passing is a sad and significant loss for New York, Mumbai, and the world of Indian cuisine: He changed the way New Yorkers, broadly, thought about Indian food with his restaurant Tabla, and paved the way for South Asian chefs that came after him. We will update this post with more information as it comes out.
He was a gentleman to his customers. Never heard anyone say an unkind word about him.
