At Leda’s Kitchen, I draw on my adventures as a private chef, cookbook author, and co-owner of Dosa Kitchen Food Truck to offer weekly-ish meals you won’t find anywhere else in Brattleboro or the surrounding areas. From the classic South Indian curries of Dosa Kitchen to Ethiopian chicken stew and kasha varnishkes, each dish offers a unique culinary experience. Plus, there’s always a vegan option, and the entire menu is gluten-free!

​

My menu features nourishing curries, soups, and stews crafted with high-quality ingredients, emphasizing free-range meats and local, organic sourcing. Each dish is designed for easy reheating, ensuring that the flavors remain vibrant and delicious. And my super-natural sweets, crafted with organic nuts, seeds, fruits, and unrefined sweeteners, offer a feel-good finish to your meal. 

 

My family-size dishes tend to be more budget-friendly than typical takeout options, with 2 generous servings or 3 smaller servings. Feel free to reach out if you're interested in placing a larger order for a party, meeting, or other event! Learn how to order here.  

 

I am the author of Cultured Foods for Your Kitchen and, with Nash Patel, Dosa Kitchen: Recipes for India’s Favorite Street Food. Over the past decade, our food truck, Dosa Kitchen, has attracted destination diners from Boston to New York, who praise our dosas as the best in the US.

 

Every dish I prepare is a reflection of my publishing and culinary journey. While serving as managing editor at Penguin Books, I worked on Rebecca Wood’s influential Whole Foods Encyclopedia, which inspired me to complete the Chef’s Training Program at the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City. This path led me to become a private chef and collaborate with notable cookbook authors including Laila Ali, Carol Alt, and four MasterChef winners, and I have tested recipes for an array of cookbooks, including Oprah’s Food, Health, and Happiness.
