Meet Thomas Zac, chef and founder of The Locavore.

Celebrating regional food across India through recipes, ingredients and events. When Zac is not busy experimenting with local ingredients and whipping up a delicious dish that's true to its flavours, he's unwinding at home and trying to just be.

We chatted with the humble chef and here's how it went...

Zac, how did you always want to be a chef?

I grew up spending a lot of time with my grandmother, who was an incredible cook. Seeing her transform simple, everyday ingredients into incredible dishes which not only tasted amazing but also changed people's mood, fascinated me. I was always curious and interested and that kept me in the kitchen with her. And in my mid-teens, I discovered that there was a whole world of professional cooking out there and I could become a chef. That's when the answer became obvious. 

Interesting! What's the one thing you love most about what you do?

With the voice and credibility I've built over the last decade, it's the opportunity and ability to transform the way people think and that can lead to a positive, long-lasting impact.

What inspires you every day?

The potential to connect with new people who are doing exciting work, collaborations and partnerships that can lead to something spectacular together and the 1% chance of creating magic every day. I am really inspired by the possibility of magic.

If not a chef, you'd be...?

A musician. Because the other thing that has a similar impact like food, the way it makes people think and feel and also connects with people in a unique way is music.

Favourite city in the world?

New York! I've lived there for over a year and there's nothing really quite like it. It just kind of takes you in and then it's up to you to make it what you want it to be. You can transform it. It can be your idea and perfect version and I think that's amazing.

When you're not working, you are?

I like to just be, enjoy some peace and quiet at home. I like running, swimming and catching up with family and friends.
