Radio Finely Chopped by Kalyan Karmakar

Prachi Agarwal Goel is the head chef and co-founder of Brownie Cottage, established in 2005. Setting up a food business was never the life plan of this academic topper from Allahabad who grew up in a conservative Marwari joint family. It was her love for baking and her future husband and co-founder of Brownie Cottage, Raghav Goel's, massive sweet tooth which led her to do a course on baking at Mumbai's Sophia Polytechnic. From there she was selected to do a specialised training programme at the Oberoi, Mumbai. At the end of her three month internship, Prachi was convinced that she wanted to build a business that espoused the values that she had internalised at this Indian run world class luxury hotel group. A dream which eventually led to the birth of the Browni Cottage. Listen to Part 1 of the podcast to know more about the inspirational story of the Brownie Queen of Mumbai.
