Ep. 36: Creating what's missing with Sydney-based artist and restaurant founder Gunjan Aylawadi
I know you’ll love this chat with the energetic and creative, Sydney-based artist (and founder of a street-style, superfoods restaurant!) Gunjan Aylawadi. Curious about how a computer science graduate ended up starting a modern Indian restaurant in a new country (via a career in fine art and furniture design)? Gunjan confesses she is easily bored, and I’m so glad she is - her creativity has found so many outlets and is enriching lives all around the world!
We spoke while I was in India in February 2020, and Gunjan was on the street by her new restaurant Flyover Fritterie in Sydney, so please excuse the sound quality, and the pre-pandemic time stamp!
