In India, families bond over food. We thank God before every meal we eat. Food, in India, is all about happiness. Happiness that is created in the kitchen and presented to families and friends. This is exactly what chef Brar will showcase in his new show. The audience will experience a passionate chef humbly cooking along with 95-year-old khansamas in Lucknow on one hand and nonchalantly going out distributing breads in south Goa on the other hand. Chef Brar will be seen partaking in a langar at the Golden Temple, cooking and serving devotees enabling a spiritual culinary experience in the city of Amritsar. He absorbs and spreads the joy and abundance of food through this show. With a chef who does not mind saying I don’t know , the show will take us on a journey where food and experiences will be combined together in one package.
About chef Brar, he is an experienced and passionate chef who has traveled the world to come back home to experience food with his quirks and humble attitude.

While some call it an art and for some call it survival , some make it in the name of lord and some keep it to bring the family together, in some parts it’s for the royal and in some it’s loved by the commoner. It’s one common love our nation shares-Food!
