Rafi's Recommendations

Inspired by

Rafi Fernandez (1965-2013)

Rafi became an expert in Indian and Malaysian cooking through her and her husband's combined heritage and may travels around the world. She wrote a number of cookbooks and taught many classes to people in her local community. Her love of cooking and of sharing her knowledge was obvious to all who met her, as many of our customers and staff still fondly remember.
