What happens when two legends from the cricket and culinary worlds meet? Well, they draw passion and inspiration from one another. Perhaps, this is what happened when cricketer Yuvraj Singh met Michelin-star chef Vikas Khanna in Manhattan, USA recently.
When Vikas Khanna Meets Yuvraj Singh
Chef Vikas Khanna who has been basking in the success of his recently opened restaurant, Bungalow in New York took to Instagram to share his recent meet-up with Yuvraj Singh. Khanna wrote that he had the most amazing event with the legend. Furthermore, he mentioned in his caption, that it was a life lesson on vision, passion, action and humility. While he met the sportsman on several occasions in India, this time, he got the opportunity to learn a lot from him. And the experience was humbling.
The duo started their evening with the UNICEF in the USA and later headed to GupShup, a popular Indian restaurant in New York helmed by Chef Zahir Khan and his team. The best part about the evening was witnessing Manhattanhenge. Calling it a pure blessing from nature, Khanna writes that magically at 8:07 pm the setting sun showed up like Manhattanhenge. This is a rare moment when the sun during sunset, aligns perfectly with the east-west streets of Manhattan. The result? A striking visual effect!
