Instamatic: A Chef's Deeper More Thoughful Look into today's instaworld

by Suvir Saran

In Instamatic, Suvir shares with us the inspiration behind his art and what drives him to create the culinary masterpieces that have won him popular acclaim and a Michelin star. He has long been a proponent of food’s ability to transcend countries, cultures and civilizations and bring about a unique ability to converse and to heal. In this book he shares with us his journeys across multiple civilizations, from the land of his birth to the land of his karma. Through the medium of a simple iPhone, Suvir shows us how to broaden our horizons and humanize one another, one image and musing at a time. These 75 photos and the thoughts that accompany them make us sit up and pay attention to that which we would ordinarily ignore or take for granted. These are mature reflections, poetically expressed and of a profound sensibility, accompanied by images of a world seen beyond the naked eye.

About the author

American Masala isn't about traditional Indian food-it's about adding new flavors to the great American melting pot, using spices to liven up the old standbys, and enjoying dishes that are as exciting and diverse as life in the big city, and yet as familiar and comforting as your mother's cooking."
