The Food and Restaurant Fairy was born out of an immense passion for food.
Malini Sood Horiuchi was born and raised in the vibrancy and warmth of India. She is a lifelong foodie who loves to cook and explore the world of food.
She has always been surrounded by the most amazing cooks – her mother, her mother in law, her aunts, her Maya and her dear foodie friends (and especially their moms) from all over the world who have taught her so much.
Malini now lives in New York City, which is one of the premier culinary capitals of the world. It is in this gastronomic playground that Malini experiments with all kinds of different cuisines.
Malini delights in critiquing different restaurants she visits in New York City and all over the world. She takes equal pleasure in trying out new recipes and cooking for her family and friends, who add so much color to her life.

Hey Malini!
Love the site! My mouth is watering just reading the recipes and
looking at the photos. And I like the layout, too. You’ll have to
tell me how you do it. I’ll have to try the salmon with miso recipe.
Looks like something that even I might be able to make…
Two suggestions though… First, where is your butter chicken recipe?
And second,
I don’t see any recipes using the ingredient, “Death warmed over”!
What’s up with that?

Aloha Malini! Your blog is fabulous and I printed out a bunch of recipes. I think of you everytime I made chicken or veggie curry, like you taught me. I look forward to seeing more posting.

Looking for an okra recipe I merely stumbled across your blog, Ms Horiuchi. I’m a mature accomplished home cook whose family had owned restaurants. I’ve seen lots of food blogs . But not many food bloggers’ recipes seems as interesting -and made with a thought towards easy preparation- as yours. Your recipes are well organised and attractively presented.
Thank you for going to the trouble to share your family recipes with people like me you don’t even know, Ms Horiuchi. You make the world better. *big smile*
Malini Sood Horiuchi
Thank You so much. You really made my day! It so great when I hear that people really are using my recipes!

Hey! I just stumbled across your blog while looking for Himachali food recipes and I am so happy I did. Ours is a region so under-represented on the internet so, add a lot more of them.
