Kalyan Karmakar: Kalyan Karmakar began blogging in 2007 when his wife, who was tired of listening to him talk about food all the time, opened a blog for him.
She named his blog www.finelychopped.net. The blog recently won the award for the best general food blog category in the FBAI 2017 Awards,
He has recently published his book, The Travelling Belly, which has been published by Hachette India. It is a food travelogue based on his travels across India :
Kalyan started his career as a market researcher and then moved into food writing. He is a cloumnist at the Indian Express, NDTV Foods and Femina. His writings can be found at the Mumbai Mirror, BBC Good Food India, The India Food Network and Scoopwhoop. He is a special guest on Mumbai on Demand on 94.3 Radio One FM and talks every Wednesday between 1 to 2 pm on Food trends.
Social media handles:
Twitter: @finelychopped
Facebook: Finely Chopped by Kalyan Karmakar
Instagram: The Finely Chopped
His YouTube channel is called: Kalyan Karmakar and he is the co-wner of the channe: The Finely Chopped. He conducts personalised food walks in Mumbai where he introduces the city to participants through the dishes of his favourite food haunts.

To unwind he heads to the kitchen where he loves to play with ingredients and his mantra is hassle-free, gut feel-based cooking.

Kalyan is a Bengali who now lives in Mumbai with his wife, who is a Parsi from Mumbai. He moved in here close to two decades back from Kolkata after spending his early years in Iran and the UK.

When asked what she feels about her introducing him to blogging, Kalyan’s wife Kainaz says "I have forgotten the taste of hot food thanks to his photographing everything on the table before we can eat it".
