Chef 's story
Sonali -Chef Mumbaikar
With more than a decade of experience in the food and service industry, I found that most of us have fond memories of food from our childhood. Whether it is our mother’s cooking or any memorable meal that we have had, food has a way of transporting us to the past. My mother always emphasizes cooking from the heart. The more passion and effort you put into your cooking, the more joy and satisfaction it will bring to the person eating your food...My style of cooking is the expression of different flavors resulting in delicious meals, with many recipes passed on to me from both my grandmothers, mother, and aunts and in-laws .. I always use fresh ingredients and a variety of spices in my cooking. I feel authentic ingredients used from scratch brings out distinct flavors which are lost as more and more people use packaged foods, spice mixes and sauces. Welcome to Chai ‘N’ Chilli, the house of authentic Indian taste, where meals and memories are made.
Every meal made by us has its own unique story that we want to share with you.
Traditional plate
Each country and region has its own unique flavor, food and culture. That’s why we believe the most genuine way to represent any culture is through food. If we talk about Maharashtrian food, it is largely regional with subtle differences in how the same ingredients are used and blended to bring out variations in the food. Using local ingredients along with regional and historic differences, is what adds to the variety of the cuisine. We therefore wanted to bring those flavors from Maharashtra to Melbourne in our own special way. Chai n Chilli is an amalgamation of our love for food, our dedication to authentic flavors and ingredients, and our upbringing in a region that has a rich history of traditions.
