Divya's Kitchen: Where Your Feelings Matter As Much As The Food

Welcome to food. curated, our James Beard Award-winning food documentary series about inspiring local food artisans! Discover more on our website: http://www.foodcurated.com

Meet Divya Alter, the chef, cookbook author and co-owner of Divya's Kitchen, the first Ayurvedic restaurant in New York City fully devoted to your feelings. Feelings matter in food. Moreso, Divya explains, they matter when it comes to digestion. Many of us suffer or have suffered after a meal because we did not honor this simple rule: Eat for how you feel. Meaning, eat mindfully for balance to maximize wellness.

At Divya’s Kitchen, this is the mindset of the space and the mission of the menu: fresh, vibrant vegetarian food that targets your feelings so you can feel better. It’s not new age, nor is it a new fad. In fact, these are teachings based on ancient Ayurvedic medical practices, practices that can be applied to any cuisine, anywhere in the world. I hope you enjoy Divya's story and visit Divya's Kitchen!
