What is Toasty Indian?

Real life. Real food.
Real talk.

I'm an Indian-born, globally-raised, Texas-rooted entrepreneur. I left Mumbai at 6, grew up in France and Malaysia, and eventually landed in New Braunfels, Texas — where I opened the city's first Indian restaurant with my mom.

Now I share the unfiltered journey of building businesses, navigating two cultures, and exploring the world through food.
