The FEZANA Talks is back for another enlightening session, this time with Parsi author Anahita Dhondy, who will speak about her book The Parsi Kitchen. Anahita has spent the last decade taking her culinary heritage to ambitious new heights. The Parsi Kitchen is a warm and whimsical memoir about how Anahita embraced the cuisine that she grew up with. Weaving together stories of the close-knit, loving and slightly wacky family, Anahita writes with passion about being raised in a food-filled household. From an heirloom Ravo recipe handed down from her grandmother to a Bombay Duck creation inspired by her travels through Gujarat—the tales behind her beloved dishes are a joyful read. The session will be hosted by Vera Springett, one of the co-founders of the popular Facebook group called Parsis Exchange Recipies (PER). This will be an engaging session for food lovers!
