With our busy modern lives, we often rely on quick and often processed foods while on the run. However, we know there are enormous health benefits when we cook at home and together. Today’s guest is here to share his mission of bringing cooking back into the kitchen with our loved ones.


Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Kimbal Musk to discuss his new cookbook. Kimbal shares his journey in cooking and what ultimately led him to open his restaurant. He also discusses why society has moved away from cooking at home and how we can bring healthy cooking back into our homes. Additionally, he shares why he became passionate about the regenerative movement and the formidable experiences in his life that shaped how he looks at preparing and cooking for his community.


Kimbal Musk is a South African-born entrepreneur, philanthropist, and restaurateur.
