What happens when an engineer trades equations for macaroni? Immigrantly host Saadia Khan sits down with Sarita Ekya, co-founder of S’MAC, the iconic East Village spot that turned mac & cheese into a cultural phenomenon. In this episode, Sarita shares her experiences growing up as an immigrant kid in Canada, taking a leap of faith in New York City, and how comfort food became her canvas for creativity and community. From winning Food Network’s Chopped to running a community fridge during the pandemic, she proves that food is never just about eating—it’s about identity, belonging, and a whole lot of fun.
