From a passionate home cook to a professional chef and founder of Gulshan’s Kitchen, my journey has been an exhilarating blend of dedication, resilience, and the unwavering support of my family.
My culinary voyage began at a young age, captivated by the aromas and flavors that filled our family kitchen. As a TV star on Plus, a sister, and a wife, my days were already packed with responsibilities. However, my passion for cooking propelled me to explore this realm further. I enrolled in culinary classes, eager to hone my skills and turn my passion into a profession.
The journey was not without its challenges. Balancing my TV commitments, family responsibilities, and pursuing my culinary dreams demanded meticulous planning and unwavering determination. Late nights of practicing and experimenting in the kitchen became a norm, allowing me to refine my techniques and develop unique flavors that would later define Gulshan’s Kitchen.
With the support of my family, especially my sister and husband, I embarked on the ambitious path of starting my own culinary venture—Gulshan’s Kitchen. This dream was nurtured with countless hours of brainstorming, research, and dedication. The name “Gulshan” holds a special place in our hearts, a tribute to the memories we shared in our family garden, a sanctuary of love and togetherness.
Launching Gulshan’s Kitchen was a leap of faith. With determination as my compass, I curated a menu that incorporated traditional flavors with a modern twist, embodying my unique culinary style. The love and admiration for my dishes began to spread like wildfire, and soon, Gulshan’s Kitchen became a go-to destination for food enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable gastronomic experience.
One of the most memorable moments in my journey was the day I was featured on a popular cooking show. The national exposure not only brought immense joy but also a surge of customers to Gulshan’s Kitchen. The positive feedback and recognition fueled my passion even more, urging me to innovate and evolve continuously.
As a woman juggling multiple roles, I faced numerous hurdles. The key to overcoming them was striking a balance between my personal and professional life. It wasn’t always easy, but the love and understanding of my family, especially my husband, provided the much-needed support and motivation to keep moving forward.
Gulshan’s Kitchen stands today as a testament to the power of passion, perseverance, and the unwavering support of loved ones. The smiles on the faces of satisfied customers, the joy of creating delectable dishes, and the warmth of a thriving culinary community make every challenge faced and overcome worth the effort.

خوابوں اور عزائم سے بھری ہوئی دنیا میں، میں، وجیہہ سعید، نے کھانا پکانے کے فن میں اپنی حقیقی دعوت پائی۔ ایک پرجوش گھریلو باورچی سے لے کر ایک پیشہ ور شیف اور گلشنز کچن کے بانی تک، میرا سفر لگن، لچک اور میرے خاندان کی غیر متزلزل حمایت کا ایک پرجوش امتزاج رہا ہے۔
میرا کھانا پکانے کا سفر ایک چھوٹی عمر میں شروع ہوا، جو ہمارے خاندان کے باورچی خانے کو بھرنے والی خوشبوؤں اور ذائقوں سے متاثر ہوا۔ پلس پر ایک ٹی وی اسٹار، ایک بہن اور ایک بیوی کے طور پر، میرے دن پہلے ہی ذمہ داریوں سے بھرے ہوئے تھے۔ تاہم، کھانا پکانے کے میرے شوق نے مجھے اس دائرے کو مزید تلاش کرنے پر مجبور کیا۔ میں نے کھانا پکانے کی کلاسوں میں داخلہ لیا، اپنی صلاحیتوں کو نکھارنے اور اپنے شوق کو پیشے میں بدلنے کے لیے بے چین ہوں۔
یہ سفر اپنے چیلنجوں کے بغیر نہیں تھا۔ اپنے ٹی وی کے وعدوں، خاندانی ذمہ داریوں میں توازن قائم کرنا، اور اپنے پاک خوابوں کی تعاقب میں پیچیدہ منصوبہ بندی اور اٹل عزم کا تقاضا ہے۔ دیر رات تک باورچی خانے میں مشق اور تجربہ کرنا ایک معمول بن گیا، جس سے مجھے اپنی تکنیکوں کو بہتر بنانے اور منفرد ذائقے تیار کرنے کا موقع ملا جو بعد میں گلشن کے کچن کی تعریف کرے گا۔
