As Seen In Media: My Journey with Authentic Bengali Food
It is such a privilege to see my small home kitchen journey highlighted in stories about food and traditions. Here are a few moments where my love for Bengali cooking made it to the headlines.
Seeing my story in a special feature by India Today was a Sunday high for me. It's a wonderful feeling to have my journey of turning a home kitchen into a business shared with so many people.
I was thrilled to be featured in the Hindustan Times, discussing the divine link between food and festivals like Durga Pujo. It was an honour to share my thoughts on Bengali culinary traditions.
About As Seen In Media
When India Today and Hindustan Times shared my story, it wasn't just about the food. It was about how a home kitchen can preserve those childhood memories of Durga Pujo feasts and Sunday lunches. Each article represents the trust my patrons have placed in me, allowing me to share my Thakumoni's recipes with families across Delhi-NCR.
Writing for the media has been a deeply humbling experience. When I started Sharmi’s Happy Meals, my only goal was to recreate the flavours I missed from my childhood—the kind of simple, honest cooking that warms the soul. It turns out, I wasn't the only one craving that specific biyebari (wedding feast) taste or the comfort of a home-style maacher jhol (fish curry).
Getting featured by publications like India Today and Hindustan Times helped me reach people who, like me, were tired of restaurant-made food that missed the mark. These features dive into the philosophy behind my kitchen:
- Why I avoid shortcuts and use fresh, home-ground spices.
- How I plan menus based on the season and the event.
- The importance of keeping traditions like Dhokaar Dalna and Nolen Gurer Payesh alive.
If you are planning an event, whether it's a birthday or a small family gathering, I bring the same care and attention to your table that I bring to my own. I don't just provide food; I help you recreate a sentiment. Let's chat about what you are planning for your next special occasion.
