Biography
I've spent over two decades as a journalist and editor on food, travel, the arts, luxury and culture. My story credits include BBC, Slate, Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post, Rolling Stone, Vogue, GQ, Roads & Kingdoms, Harper's Bazaar, Conde Nast Traveler and Travel & Leisure. I have edited two national publications in India and Sri Lanka (Robb Report and The Ceylon Chronicle) and consulted on magazine and content publishing in India and the UAE. My last gigs were stints with Cultures in Conversation at Dubai EXPO 2020 and a consultant and editor for Alserkal Avenue for their digital content.

By Govind Dhar| The Hindu Business Line Verified W hen the late and great Anthony Bourdain visited Lisbon in 2012, among the chefs he met was the Michelin star-winner José Avillez. Since then, Avillez has opened on an average almost two restaurants a year, each offering its patrons a different theme and dining experience. A section of critics in the Portuguese capital fears that the chef is stretching himself out too thin and consistency is beginning to waver at some of his restaurants.
