Summary

Co-host Tiffany Eslick sits down with author, restauranteur and inspiring activist Asma Khan on the sidelines of What The Food at Alserkal Avenue. Asma became the first British chef to be featured on Chef’s Table, showcasing her work with Darjeeling Express in London, and celebrating the birth of daughters.
