Focusing on the example of how pizza had become renowned across the world, he said that its popularity was purely due to the simplicity of the food. Manish said, “The problem with Indian food is that we intentionally try to make it more complex. Actually the real beauty lies with the simplicity and how we present the food to the customers.
