Saransh Oberoi's father is Hemant Oberoi, who ran the kitchens at the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai during the 2008 terrorist attack and stayed on the floor for thirty-six hours feeding guests. The son trained at the Culinary Institute of America and now runs Curry & More in Oceanside and San Marcos.

He brought kati roll — Kolkata street food, a paratha wrapped around spiced meat and onion-mint chutney. It is the dish that exposes whether you understand how a paratha is supposed to flake. The dough is folded with ghee in a way that produces a hundred fine layers; cooked on a tava, the layers separate into something between a roti and a croissant.

Bobby's wrap, per the room, did not flake.
