Italian-origin Mumbaikar Giulia Raffaello, who calls Mumbai her home, has been discovering Indian food in the country since 2018. In fact, just last year, she did a series on Indian street food and many people loved it. With a growing interest in food in India, it didn’t take long for the Human Resource professional-turned-content creator to tap into her Italian roots but in Mumbai. She shares, “I noticed an increased interest from my community in Italy, its food and culture. I thought it was time to start reviewing Italian food in India, beginning with Mumbai, my home in India. I wanted to explore and share how easy it is to find authentic Italian cuisine here, helping me enjoy the flavours of home when I miss it.” With that, she set out to document not only the best places for pizzas but also tiramisu and coffee in Mumbai on her Instagram account @onlyonegiulia opening with ‘We are Italians in Mumbai’ in a six-part series.
