Growing up in West Bengal in a Punjabi family, author Romy Gill was exposed to a unique blend of flavours that shaped her culinary identity. Her travels across India and the countless stories shared by friends and families along the way inspired her to present recipes that reflect the rich culinary heritage of her childhood in her book, Romy Gill’s India: Recipes from Home, where she shares over 70 of her beloved family recipes. 
Later this week, Gill will be launching her book at Magazine St Kitchen and will be in an intimate conversation with restaurateur  Gauri Devidayal, along with a curated tasting experience inspired by the recipes in the cookbook.

What sets this book apart is its storytelling. “It’s not just a collection of recipes—it’s a journey. Writing it was deeply personal for me. It stemmed from my desire to capture and celebrate the diversity of Indian cuisine through the lens of my own experiences. I’ve woven in personal anecdotes, cultural insights, and memories that connect each dish to its roots. This book is a love letter to the vibrant and diverse food I grew up eating  and an invitation for readers to discover the stories behind each bite.”
