  • Vicky Ratnani: A Burst of Flavour  & Flair

Known for his flavours and flair in the kitchen, celebrity chef Vicky Ratnani definately makes cooking exciting. Ratnani is the corporate chef at Aurus, a fine dining restaurant in Mumbai and host of the popular TV cooking show, Vicky Goes Veg where he turns vegetarianism into an art form.

An extensive traveller, this globetrotting chef uses his experiences abroad as inspiration for his delectable dishes. Chef Ratnani shares some of these inspired recipes with DARPAN from his cookbook, Vicky Goes Veg.
