Chef Vikas Khanna was recently hosted by Priyanka Chopra‘s mother, Dr. Madhu Chopra for lunch. And turns out the chef was left mighty impressed by Priyanka’s brother Siddharth Chopra’s cooking skills. Sharing pictures from their lunch, Vikas penned a note on social media elaborating how every dish prepared by Siddharth was amazing. In fact, the celebrated chef also called the spread, “one of the best meals he had in a long time.”
Taking to Instagram, Vikas wrote, “Mumbai gave me one of the best meals I’ve had in a long, long time. After years, I tasted Gajjar Halwa that felt exactly like my Biji’s—the kind that doesn’t just feed you… It returns you to your childhood. The Daal Bukhara was a healing hug from an elder in the family. The Kharode Curry was perfection—spot on, like the warmth of Kolkata’s Nalli Kosha. And that Makki Roti… softer than the ones I’ve eaten on Punjab highways in winter. I can’t even write about 5 Greens Saag without getting emotional. Even something as simple as onions felt like time travel—pungent mustard and memories. And the chef’s chaat masala? It needs to be packaged ASAP. All of this was cooked by the brilliant Siddharth Chopra, just as he promised when he visited with the amazing Neelam. Thank you, Dr Madhu Chopra, for hosting me.”

On the work front, Vikas Khanna is currently seen as a judge on the cooking-based reality show MasterChef India Season 9.
