Coming to America: Ajay Walia
"Many of the dishes that Walia serves at Saffron are influenced by particular places in his hometown of New Delhi. The butter chicken dish [we serve] was invented by a chef close to my childhood home and it was a weekly staple for me. Saffron’s signature dal makhani traces back to [a famous restaurant named] Bukhara in New Delhi, and the lasooni saag paneer [was] inspired by my mom." - Marguerite Imbert
