With dreams of being a rockstar, Cheetie realized at a young age she didn’t quite fit in. Moving from India to the Bronx as a kid, Cheetie struggled to figure out what she wanted to do with her life. As she got older, two things really came into focus: Music and Food. While on the road touring as a guitarist Cheetie fell in love with Raleigh, and saw that the city was an opportunity to bring her love of those two things together. Today, Cheetie is the Head Chef/Owner of Garland and nominated for multiple James Beard Awards. She is also the co-owner of KINGs, an indie music venue and adjoining cocktail bar, Neptune’s Parlour while playing guitarist in her band, Birds of Avalon.
