Annie Bafna is a CA as many of her fellow Parsis are. What makes her rare in the community is that she is a vegetarian! She used to eat eggs once but has given that up apart from when she needs to do tastings at The Nutcracker Mumbai which has an egg-etarian menu. Like any good Parsi, Annie reveres eggs. This ensures that the scrambled eggs coming out of her kitchen are consistently creamy and dreamy. Annie is not a chef. She worked for 7 years in the finance industry and then 7 years in the design industry before she followed her longstanding dream of being in the food business by opening the first Nutcracker outlet in Mumbai's art district, Kalaghoda. This was 8 years back in October 2014. Since then she has opened 3 more outlets in Bandra West, Palladium and Jio World Drive with a menu that has much more than scrambled eggs. Be it her customers or her team, putting people first is Annie's success mantra. To know the secret behind the Nutcracker scrambled egg and the story behind the name Nutcracker, tune into the episode and sit back and listen to Annie tell her story.
