Uzma’s love of food comes from her parents, and she credits her success and
drive to them. “My dad was great lover of food, he was the one who opened the
first restaurant we had. I can still remember tiles were going up on the opening
day, we were still working on the building when people started walking through
the doors.” Even though it was hectic and stressful, the restaurant opening was
a success and next, her mum became an even valued member of the team. “When we
struggled with staff and chefs, my mother stepped in and became the chef. She
brought family recipes into the kitchen, imbuing the entire restaurant with an
atmosphere you can only get with home cooking.” The rustic Punjabi recipes
originally served in the restaurants are still customer favourites today, and
Uzma’s passion is helping bring the skill and love to them that these dishes
deserve.
