This week, Gilly is going to Pakistan, through the memories of food writer and writing coach, Sumayya Usmani 

Her memoir, Andaza tells the everyday stories about life and food in Karachi. It sees the kitchen as a place where young Pakistani girls learn much more from their mothers and grandmothers than how to make a recipe, but how to feed, how to nurture and how to connect.
