Chithra ~ Viswanathan: SoulFood & SoulMates - An interview for Harmony Magazine

archana.kc · Aug 8, 2012

Hi all,

It is of great happiness to share this news with all of you. Mr and Mrs. Chitvish have been interviewed by Prathiba Jain, author of award winning cookbook Sukham Ayu.

This is a part of an exclusive series titled Soulfood and Soulmates for Harmony magazine.

The interview brings out various small details and engages a beautiful conversation mode. Those in the forum who have personally visited her flat and had a meal know how calming and divine the experience is. On a personal note, this interview also brings a lot of valuable lessons for young ones like me on life, love and marriage!

The interview speaks on her foray into the internet, the start with Indusladies, the invaluable love and friendships fostered and on her entry into the Apps market. Oh, it also mentions about the new Samsung tablet! What is an interview with Chitvish without a recipe – read on for thavala vadai

Full text of the interview is published on Prathiba and Jigyasa’s website here ( with awesome pictures) -

One more thing I would like to share here,just yesterday my sister's daughter who lives in US and who delivered a baby boy a month ago was asking about CHITVISH as she had seen her on FB and wanted to know whether I know her and her cooking.I proudly said YES and in fact had the opportunity to be present in her house for MEET IN JUNE 2007..........

Nice read. Their experience and wisdom reflects in every word. Yet the much needed live and let live attitude. Wish every couple learns from them.
She is truly a phenomenon.
God bless you Chitramma
