So tell me a little bit about Nani’s Indian Kitchen and how it got started.
“It got started because I lost my job. I was one of the casualties of the pandemic when they laid off 2500 people. I’ve always wanted to do something food related and I’ve had my LLC forever and thought I was going to do farmers markets or a food truck. I had all these plans but never had the time because I was always on the road, but then I had to make a pivot because I lost my job so I thought “let’s open a restaurant!”
Where do the recipes come from? Are they family recipes?
“Nani is my mom and the grandma to my children. You know I’m her prodigy and I learned to cook from her since I was 8 or 9 years old. I’ve always loved cooking for people and having tons of parties”
Is there a dish that is really popular or something that represents you and your business?
“The most popular dish here is the chicken tikka masala. People just love it and I can’t have enough. My favorite dish is lamb korma and it’s something I’ve worked on my own and have gone with a different recipe than most restaurants in the area so it’s a different sauce. I love a korma dish though, so that’s probably one of my favorites.”
