Today December 2nd, 23 years ago I moved to the U.S.
One of the biggest decisions I made in my life.
Leaving everything that was mine & familiar to start all over again.
Fell in love with Manhattan. It gave me the power to bring Indian Cuisine & Culture to the World’s biggest platforms.
Some of the biggest highlights remain-
1. Selling food on the streets of NY.
2. Cooking at James Beard with my sister Radha behind me.
3. Radha’s Graduation from FIT.
4. Cooking for 4 American Presidents.
5. Working with Gordon Ramsay.
6. Working with my mentor-friend Eric Ripert
7. Serving more than 80 Million Meals from NY during pandemic.
8. Launching 41 books with the most varied subjects.
9. Winning a Michelin Star
10. Standing applause for THE LAST COLOR at United Nations Headquarters.

To welcome Consulate General Mr. Randhir Jaiswal in New York, I hosted a lunch at my place 3.5 years ago. And today I attended his farewell party at @indiainnewyork
In 23 years living in NY, I’ve hosted almost every diplomat….but Randhir ji & Abha ji are different. They are family. ❤️
And in years to come I saw their commitment to India & by embracing the soul of a nation & representing it with so much dignity & honor.
During this time, he hosted several events from launching “Sacred Foods of India” to Zighrara perfume to Millets Dinners to Elements Chocolates to tribute to Lata Ji to Konark Wheel at Times Square to supporting @guneetmonga for Elephant Whisperers & hundreds of other events.
He is a true friend & son of India.
I’m getting too emotional to write about how he stood by me during Radhika’s funeral.
A true essence of a great leader is empathy & connection to soul.
Sir, NY will miss you.
Every. Single. Day.
Wishing Abha ji, you & family lots of love, health & prosperity.
Forever your fan & admirer.

India’s cuisine is our soft power to the World.
Today we are rated as one of the top cuisines in the World….With several Michelin Star Chefs to most influential global Indian chefs & also in the World’s Top Lists.
Indian chefs & restaurateurs play a vital role in making this happen & bringing the World closer to our country.
Honored to be a part of this journey.
Repost: @thegeostrata Soft power is the country’s ability to influence others without resorting to coercion. It serves as an antipode to hard power, which is influencing people through coercion and military capabilities.
Cuisine diplomacy, a time- tested strategy, entails showcasing and promoting one’s culture to others via its culinary riches. The nation has the capacity to impact its citizens through its gastronomic traditions. Authored by Nandita Lata for the Geostrata.
