Ruth Dsouza Prabhu is an independent journalist and author based in Bengaluru, with 25 years of experience across television, print and digital media. Her work has appeared in The New York Times, Al Jazeera, The National, Nikkei Asia, Condé Nast Traveller and Architectural Digest among others. She is the author and editor of India's Most Legendary Restaurants and a contributor to the Bloomsbury Handbook of Indian Cuisine. Ruth explores places through their food and finds her best stories in conversations with the people behind it. Off the clock, she is a committed pickle fiend with a dedicated cupboard to prove it. And is thoroughly unimpressed by her recently acquired lactose intolerance, despite never having cared much for dessert anyway.
