In this November edition, we observe the festival of lights with a delightful article where three members of the hospitality industry have vividly recounted their memories of the traditional food that is a must in their homes, at this time of the year. We also take a look at the other November holiday. Thanksgiving; the history behind it and the typically, tasty food associated with it. This month’s ‘Culinary Maestro’ is the charming, Chef Mandaar Sukhtankar who shares his exciting and interesting voyage in the hospitality world.
