Posted:

Menomonie (WQOW) - A local professor is mourning the loss of former colleagues in Mumbai.

Peter D'Souza teaches hospitality and tourism at UW-Stout. He worked as a chef at the Taj Mahal Hotel in Mumbai for 3 years in the 1980s. D'Souza says six of his former colleagues were killed in the recent terrorist attacks there.

The professor says, "I worked with true professionals who gave their lives in the process of doing their jobs. It was a sad moment for me."

D'Souza says his love of French, Indian and oriental cuisine came from his time at the Taj Mahal Hotel.
