Mita's Story
In 2019, I arrived in the United States with a singular purpose – to pursue my education, graduate, and secure a stable job. I joined the pre-nursing program at MUW, devoting my time and energy to my studies. But fate had other plans for me. As I took on the responsibility of cooking for myself, I discovered a passion that had long been dormant within me. The rich flavors of Nepali cuisine awakened my senses, and I began to experiment with different dishes.
As I shared my food with others, their reactions were overwhelmingly positive. Time and again, people urged me to open a restaurant. Though it meant making sacrifices, I knew in my heart that this was my calling. In the fall of 2022, I completed my pre-nursing program and faced a difficult choice – to pursue my dream of opening a restaurant or continue on the path of nursing. With the unwavering support of my loved ones, and my father’s sage advice to begin without fear, I chose to follow my heart.
And so, I find myself on the brink of a new chapter in my life – one where I can share the flavors of my homeland with the world. Come, join me on this journey of culinary discovery, where every dish is a testament to the love and care that goes into it.
