Welcome to Foodie's Life!

My name is Chris and I am a registered dietitian. But before pursuing a career in nutrition, I was training to become a pastry chef! Who would have thunk?! Although these two jobs can appear to be total opposites, my work as a pastry chef has helped me develop a better relationship with food. I truly believe that decadent desserts can be part of a healthy lifestyle. 

​

Working with food has also allowed me to experience international cuisines, cultures and cooking styles. I have continued to learn about various cultural practices through working in the community with clients from all over the world. Being born in India and having a partner from Hong Kong, I am well versed in Indian and Chinese cuisine. Thankfully, the diversity in Toronto has allowed me to get a taste of many countries – from idiyappam to jollof rice, jerk chicken to saganaki, I love it all!
