Mumbai born Shital Kakad of Shital's Food Cottage loved food ever since she was a child. This soon translated into a love for feeding. Her initial enthusiasm was around what one could call 'world cuisine'...pizza, pasta, cakes... turning any dish that her husband liked during their travels into a vegetarian one once back home, was her super power. She then came across the world of food bloggers and chefs, initially through the FBAI, and realised the need to understand, document and share the marvels of ones native cuisine. She began cooking and feeding people dishes from her family's Surti heritage as well those that she learnt from her husband’s family, whose origins lay in Rajkot in Gujarat. She did a few pop ups, opened her own cook studio, teamed up with a gym to create keto vegetarian meals (thrice a day, across cuisines), started a food magazine till the pandemic hit us. That is when Shital decided to become a 'serious' home chef and has not looked back since then. This podcast episode tells her story till date.
