Geeta Maini was born in Kenya and lived in Kisumu and Nairobi as a child. She learned to cook at the side of her mother, Pushpa Bhasin, with her sister and brothers often sharing in the lessons.
In Canada as a busy young mother, Geeta continued to explore the culinary arts. She became a superb hostess, a student of many ethnic cuisines and eventually a teacher offering lessons of her own.
Today she travels often between Canada, Nairobi and India, continuing to enhance her repertoire, explore and infuse her recipes with the flavours and colours she loves.
