She learned a lot during her internship
To make her dream venture a reality, she also decides to go through a course at the Culinary Institute of America to sharpen her skills. But before she could join them, she has to invest six months in a culinary kitchen.
During her internship at Mumbai’s Marriott Hotels, she has learned about the different shades of desserts and realized that Western desserts are a tough category.
