What People Are Saying

J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, author of The Food Lab

"Chef Dev brilliantly combines flavors and techniques from across the globe into dishes that feel comfortingly familiar yet wildly exciting. Each recipe is a story you can't wait to re-tell so you can watch the joy spread to others and invite them to join in the feast."

Tracy Moore, host of Cityline on CTV

"It's always a pleasure to dip into Chef Dev's recipes. He can single-handedly turn my least-loved West Indian dishes into my most adored (hello, okra!). Following Chef on his journey to uncover and reacquaint himself with his roots has been a lesson in flavor, culture, and ancestry - but mostly love. I can't wait to see what he serves up next."

Adrian Niman, Executive Chef at Food Dudes

"From the moment Chef Dev walked into my kitchen, I saw an instant star. From his passion for food to his tremendous skillset to his charismatic personality, I knew he was destined for greatness. And this book embodies Dev's philosophy of food: generating bold flavors and multiple textures in every bite."
