The title winner of ‘MasterChef India — Tamil’, Devaki Vijayaraman, talks about how the cooking reality show helped her find her feet in the culinary world
In this remote bylane of Thillai Nagar in Tiruchi, a banner congratulating Devaki Vijayaraman for winning the title in the first season of MasterChef India — Tamil works better than Google Maps in helping us locate the low-profile victor’s home.
But Devaki blushes when we mention it to her. “My husband and school friends put it up, even though I was not for it. Participating in MasterChef Tamil and winning the inaugural season feels like a dream to me; I haven’t woken up yet!” laughs Devaki.
Prepping, as every chef is fond of saying, is everything when it comes to the culinary world. But for Devaki, preparation has been often overtaken by her passion to try new things.
