The lady responsible for Delhi NCR’s Berry Pulao revolution – meet Chef Anahita Dhondy. The Parsi bawi has brought the capital closer to Irani & Parsi cuisine, saving us many a trips to Bombay for the classic Irani Cafe & Bar evenings. When this superstar isn’t (wo)manning Sodabottleopenerwala, she’s either on a much-deserved dim sum break or channeling her flair for haute couture.
If you’ve met her then you know it, if you haven’t then take it from us – the three SBOWs across town may be dishing out delights, but the sweetest spot on their crown is the ace chef herself. Curious to track the makings of an authentic Parsi-Irani fridge, we went knocking on Anahita’s fridge door with #DSSCFridgeDiaries, to discover the art of simple food cinderella-d into stellar dishes.
