Rishma Govani has spent the last three decades committed to breaking down barriers, extending bridges, and championing cross-cultural understanding, awareness, and acceptance. Curious by nature, she is a trailblazing advocate for pluralism. She is the CFO (Chief Food Officer) for TFLC, the Toronto Food Luck Club, a successful dinner club that explored over 100 world cuisines for 15 years in Toronto. TFLC is the inspiration behind this book. A daughter of Ugandan refugees, trained as a journalist, and known as an eternal optimist, she hopes to contribute to global peace by helping people learn more about the world's diverse cultures. She continues to think global and eat local with the real-life version of Asha & Raine, her children Mila & Khalil Mulji and in honour of their dad, the biggest foodie of them all.
