<\/a><\/p>\nNaina wearing a black & white Raw Mango sari<\/strong><\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0Where did you grow up?<\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0I was born and brought up in Paris. My mother is Punjabi, my father is French. I moved to Delhi almost ten years ago, in 2006. I went to an Ashram for six months in Bihar, and after that experience, I decided to stay on and live on India.<\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0What are your favourite restaurants, after Le Bistro? <\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0I like the fish tacos at Coast Caf\u00e9. I really like the Korean restaurant, Gung the Palace. It\u2019s a fun place. And La Bodega.<\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0Surprising things you learnt while running a restaurant: <\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0I have crazy stories of things that happened to me in the restaurant, people doing strange stuff. It\u2019s off the record!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Naina wearing Neelam Narang earrings and a Raw Mango checked sari<\/strong><\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0How and where did your relationship with food begin?<\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0I\u2019m half-French, so it started there. You get infused with the food and culture. And more than just eating, the art of how to eat. Which knife to use with what, which fork with what. When are you supposed to eat a salad? What glass to use? I love all the rules of eating. And in my family it was quite strict in a way \u2013 this is how I was brought up, in the old aristocratic French way. All our family trips centered around food. Everybody cooks. Everybody spends the time in the kitchen. So this is how I grew up.<\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0Do you have favourite dishes that you like to make at home? <\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0I am going to my house in Brittany this summer, and what is amazing about France is that you get amazing produce wherever you are. The blue lobsters \u2013 the best lobsters in the world \u2013 are from there. Oysters, crabs, fresh fish. You don\u2019t have to do anything. The vegetables, the potatoes are so good. You don\u2019t need anything on top of them \u2013 just lemon, salt, pepper.<\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0Do you have a favourite summer cocktail? <\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0I like spritz. It\u2019s Campari and champagne with fresh oranges.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Naina wearing Neelam Narang earrings<\/strong><\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0Is there a piece of clothing or jewelry that you love? <\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0Flowers in my hair is my thing. As much as possible, I put flowers in my hair. And I carry a fan as well. So sort of a Spanish influence. My father was a fashion designer and art director in France, and my mother also worked in fashion, so I grew up in fashion, with collections, fashion week, shows, fabrics\u2026 I used to model when I was here, in college. I love looking at my mother\u2019s clothes. She is my best advisor when it comes to clothes. She is Punjabi, but she has completely adopted the French culture.<\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0Do you wear saris often? What kinds, and how do you style them?<\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0Very often. I like wearing belts with my saris. I like wearing my saris short, so you can see a lot of the ankle. If I wasn\u2019t running a French restaurant, I would wear only saris. It\u2019s a piece of clothing that I feel so comfortable wearing. And women look so beautiful in saris.<\/p>\n Q.\u00a0\u00a0What was your favourite among the things you tried today? <\/strong><\/p>\n A.\u00a0\u00a0It was difficult for me to choose. I could have worn all of these saris. All of them were beautiful.<\/p>\n Shop Raw Mango’s Checked Saris<\/strong><\/a> Naina de Bois-Juzan, restauranteur, Le Bistro du Parc Talks to us about the rules of eating, blue lobsters & her love of saris Naina wearing a black & white Raw Mango sari Q.\u00a0\u00a0Where did you grow up?
