Sahota came to America from a small village in Punjab. "No English. No money. Just a dream, and the grit of a father's work ethic passed down through generations," his message on the website of Tikka Drive read.
"My family and I worked every job in the kitchen, saving every dollar while learning the restaurant business from the ground up. We opened a small 12-table restaurant in Arizona. No investors. No marketing. Just heart, hustle, and handmade dishes," he wrote.
