About this Event
The Kohli sisters, Chandani and Sahaj, are reuniting in the Lower East Side over biscuits and masala cha this May! With a 7 year age gap and at times wildly different personalities, we are so excited to join forces as the founders of Biskut Bar and Brown Girl Therapy to host an intimate gathering with biscuits, cha, and chit chat. We’ll unpack our ever evolving relationship as sisters, roles as entrepreneurs and writers, and our journey as third culture kids going against the grain (or perhaps not!).
The nitty gritty:
This is a ticketed event from 7pm to 9pm with a limited space of 15 tickets.
Please note that there cannot be any substitutes to accommodate dietary restrictions.
There will be chai available for purchase.
