Little Green Kitchen specialises in vegetarian cuisine, offering cooking classes, food consulting, private chef and catering services. Little Green Kitchen was started by Shalu Asnani, a former lawyer and now a chef, cooking instructor, self-confessed foodie and advocate of all things healthy and sustainable. It's a platform for anyone wishing to subscribe to a healthier lifestyle and to get inspiration by attending one of her fabulous vegetarian cooking classes!

Shalu's foray into the world of professional cooking started a few years ago after relocating to Beijing. Born into a family of great cooks, Shalu was exposed to the art of vegetarian cooking at a young age and picked up many family secrets along the way, but is constantly reinventing her style to keep things fresh and modern. Her niche is healthy vegetarian food panning all styles - Asian street food to modern Western cuisine - and her goal is to disprove the myth that vegetarian food is boring.

After a successful teaching stint at The Hutong cooking school in Beijing, Shalu has introduced her creative style of teaching here. She teaches at Palate Sensations and at home, consults restaurants and individuals on creative vegetarian cuisine. Shalu also has a diploma in vegetarian cuisine from Cordon Vert Cookery School in the U.K which has given her an added dimension to her creative cooking skills.

Apart from cooking, her other passion is travelling which she combines with cooking by getting inspiration from eating exciting food around the world, and attending cooking classes overseas to broaden her repertoire. Shalu constantly brings new ideas to her classes and showcases a variety of dishes that are incredibly tasty. It's interesting and fun to experiment with vegetarian cuisine, and you can enjoy all the benefits of being healthy without compromising on taste!
