Meet Jyoti Kandel | Owner, Aroma Grill and bar

We had the good fortune of connecting with Jyoti Kandel and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jyoti, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I have been in the hospitality industry for last 15 year . Did my masters in hospitality management from California. Worked in many high end restaurant and hotels in London and Losangeles. Worked with great chefs and leaders. So to promote our own food from Nepal and India, I was eyeing for better opportunity and moved to texas for that kind of opportunity and I started the business with a chef Shreeram who worked in newyork many years in Nepali and Indian restaurants.
