I am a North Indian:
And like sarson ka saag and makai di roti. I have just acquired a taste for it because in my growing years, I hated it as I found it kadwa. I am also fond of lassi.
My Fitness Regimen:
I work out four times a week. I play golf and swim at times. At the gym, I cycle for half an hour and then do weights and free hand exercises.
Other Food Favourites:
My favourite restaurants:
Thai Ban in Mumbai. In Delhi, I like Bukhara and Baan Thai. In Singapore, the ambience at Esmirada is lovely. In Paris, little restaurants run by families, leave you with a warm feeling.
My favourite dining friends:
Chitra, my brother's wife. Otherwise, it's my husband and my family.
I can cook:
Excellent pastas and salads.
My favourite cook in the family is:
My mom. She makes lovely palak and dal.
One thing I can't resist buying: Fruits.
My childhood memory of food:
My mom would make awesome nankhatais. When she did, the whole house would be filled with its aroma.
My fridge always has:
Milk, curd and meetha. In sweets, there should be chocolates and patisa.
My idea of a romantic meal:
Would be on a yacht on the Nile. A beautiful sunset, perfect wine, nice weather would be good. The meal should have no garlic, onions and fish.
