This week on Hey Sis, Eat This, we are joined by the one and only Chef Asheesh Danee. Born in Nairobi, Chef Asheesh first fell in love with cooking in the kitchen of his vegetarian mother, where he became the taste tester when she cooked meat dishes for the family. Chef Asheesh shares with us his favorite cuisines, his cooking conundrums, and his go to date night steak dinner.
His training in London, Paris, and Italy is reflected in his expertise in an array of cuisines, proving that there is nothing he can't make. Whether it's his famous vodka infused Pani Puri, inspired by the street food in India, or his signature Chicken Tikka Ravioli to simple sous vide steaks for his girlfriend, his range as a Chef is unlike anything we’ve seen on this show.
We learn how his extraordinary skills were honed from training under Marco Pierre White and catering Rugby matches for 105,000 people to garden parties for the Queen of England, Elizabeth the Second. While he won’t confirm or deny that he cooked for Princess Diana, he does spill the Earl Grey tea on being the first non military chef to work at Buckingham Palace under the world famous chef to the Queen, Robert Irvine.
The fascinating Chef Asheesh who’s trained all over the world and fed the cast of thousands, continues to wow his celebrity clients with his unique cuisine drawing inspiration from his travels around the globe. You cannot fit his style in a box and that’s what makes him so special! This episode will have you placing an order for Indian take out while binge watching The Crown.
Cheerio, Y’all!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
