Monica has been cooking since she was a young girl and still remembers the first dish she ever prepared for her family - poha, an ethereal flattened rice dish seasoned with spices. She learned most of her cooking skills from her grandmother and mother-in-law, who taught her to make an excellent kadhi chawal (yogurt curry served with rice).
In addition to cooking and feeding her loved ones, Monica helps her husband run the family restaurant, which was started by her father-in-law in 1960 making it one of the oldest restaurants in Agra. Cooking runs in the family as both her husband and son are trained chefs. Her son owns a café in Agra called Overdoze. When not cooking, Monica runs a small boutique out of her home that showcases Indian clothes and fabrics.
