Akhtar Nawab and I sat down amongst the nearly full tables at Alta Calidad at the apparently very happening hour of 2:00 p.m. on a Wednesday. A corner restaurant with ample natural light and a prime location right on Vanderbilt Avenue, it’s easy to see why this makes a good weekday lunch destination. The space also serves as great insight into the vision of the accomplished Nawab for his current and future endeavors.
Tell me a little bit about yourself and what brought you here — to New York, and to Alta Calidad.
