Cook and Nene eating Vada Pav together
When in Mumbai, one must do what the Mumbaikars do. And so, the Bollywood actress, Madhuri Dixit Nene herself, gave a treat to the CEO with Mumbai’s most famous street food, Vada Pav, and showed him the joys of it. They can both be seen bonding and connecting with each other. This is said to be the duo’s second meeting during his multiple visits to India. Swati Snacks, a local eatery with two outlets in Mumbai, served them both, and we sure know that they cannot get enough of it. This eatery is also said to be Ambani family’s favourite.
Nene shared their picture on Twitter, relishing the food, and said that she cannot think of a better welcome to Bombay other than Vada Pav. Madhuri Dixit is one of the first Bollywood celebrities to meet Mr. Cook in Mumbai.
