What is your signature dish?

Mutton Biryani

Who is your culinary inspiration?

Byron Talbott is seriously so good. The way he sears meats is honestly so satisfying to watch. Every single dish looks incredible, and his videos always leave you inspired to get into the kitchen and cook something good.

What would you do with the $25,000?

You know, one can do a lot with that amount. I don’t think there’s just one answer to what I would do with $25,000. It really depends on the circumstances. I could use it for my child’s education, invest it for his future, or even put it towards my passion for cooking. Either way, I’d want to do something meaningful and sensible with it.
