I’m Parichay, a food creator, recipe developer and the person behind Bhukkad in Town. For me, food has always been more than just a recipe. I grew up around Nepal and later made Chandigarh home, so a lot of the way I cook comes from memories, places I’ve travelled to, food I’ve eaten and the people I’ve shared it with.
