About Our Guest:

Chef Ashish Sathyan loves eating homemade food, especially fish curry. His favorite thing to do when he is not working is playing cricket. He is one of the best bowlers in Omaha Cricket, which he described as his extended family. Kimberly was born and raised in Omaha. Eating, traveling, watching movies, and reading have been her favorite things for most of her life. She has been a hairstylist for 11 years. This allowed her to travel all over the world and throughout the United States. While doing this she also earned a Bachelor’s degree in Economics from the UNO College of Business.

Her studies took her to India, where she fell in love with the culture. A few months after she got back, she and Ashish met. With both of their experiences in customer service and Kimberly’s business degree, they want to bring you the best Indian food and the best experience. With Omaha having the most restaurants per capita, they know you have many choices when deciding where to eat. They want to show that they will always respect your money, and will give you high-quality food at a reasonable rate. It will always be true that you are only as good as the last dish you served.
