Why chef Gaggan Anand has a craving for Bengali cuisine

Chef Gaggan Anand talks about food:

Thumbs up

Bengali cuisine

It can be an inspiration to a big fine dining menu.




Not another

Burger, even though it's my go-to comfort food. With my work schedule I'm always eating it.




Love Khichdi

The problem is we think risotto is fancier than khichdi, but it is to Indian cuisine, what the former is to Italian.



(Chef Gaggan Anand on his food peeves)

Thumbs down

Dal makhani and naan bread

The whole world thinks that is Indian cuisine, which it is not.
