On this episode of Food From Here and There, I take a look at traditional Indian mithais with a twist with Girish Nayak, Chief Mithaiwala at the Bombay Sweet Shop. We chat about how Girish studied western confectionery in the prestigious Culinary Institute of America, but found his calling with Indian sweets back home; his travels across the country, learning about different flavours and techniques from halwais all over India; and how he has been able to put a modern and international spin on these mithais at the Bombay Sweet Shop.
