Gauri Devidayal, one of the few women restaurateurs in India, has leveraged the power of food to bring the world to a community table in South Mumbai’s lively Colaba. In 2011, Gauri left a lucrative career to co-found the Food Matters group, an industry typically dominated by men. Today, as the founder of several hospitality brands such as Mag Street Bread Co, Mag Street Kitchen, Mag Street Café, Iktara, Miss T, and Mag St Toppings, Gauri is more than a dynamic restauranteur. She inspires aspiring female entrepreneurs through her podcast Women on Top in India with inspirational journeys of female founders and leaders and also brings insightful thoughts on post-pandemic global topics with various industry experts and thought leaders in another podcast called This Round is on Me. Further, she is a wine expert, a columnist for food and travel publications, and on the Advisory Board for the India arm of US founded GLEAM Network. Her first-ever venture, The Table, is India's most famous restaurant today and is recognized for serving a global platter with locally grown fresh farm produce—having hosted stars such as U2 and many epicures and gourmands since its inception.
