Summary

Filmmaker turned chef Preeti Mistry cooks Indian food with a distinctly Bay Area sensibility. Think big flavors built from the best ingredients, served in a casual, fun setting. On a recent trip to New York, Mistry stopped by the Eater Upsell studios to talk about her Top Chef days, her stint in a Google cafeteria kitchen, her love of Do The Right Thing, embracing her heritage, and building something new out of her past.
