I am proud to present home chef turned restaurant owner Surekha Walke, of Chaitanya Restaurant and Mother of Malvan, in the latest episode of #FoodocracyForHer.
Surekha ji was born in Malvan in coastal Maharashtra. While growing up she was interested in everything but cooking...sports, theatre, politics (in college)..even though she came from a family that owned a Malvani bakery and sweets shop. She married Nitin ji who loves food. Surekha ji learnt how to cook from her mother in law and won her husband's heart with her cooking. He suggested that they open an eatery and that is how Chaitanya (which means satisfaction) was born in 1992. The restaurant grew over time with Surekha ji cooking Malvani food that appealed to locals and then tourists. She moved to Mumbai in 2010 to be with her son Mitra and daughter Saili who were studying here. She was unhappy with the Malvani food on offer at local restaurants and decided to matters in her own hands and opened a tiny eatery near Shivaji Park (I have been a fan of her food since then). The rest is history. Chaitanya now has a 36 seater aircon restaurant at Prabhadevi and one at Andheri. The family decided to launch 'Mother o Malvan' in the pandemic which offers Malvani spices and meva (sweets). Do watch the video to hear her amazing story. This is the first #foodocracyforher interview in Hindi and I provided translations at the end of each section.
