Rare and exotic food distributor and founder of Regalis Foods, Ian Purkayastha, tells Scott and Rozzi how he broke into an impossible business and became wildly successful. Part of the inspiration behind the critically acclaimed movie ‘Pig’, Ian reveals how he went from the son of immigrants living in Arkansas to maintaining relationships with almost every Michelin-starred restaurant in the United States, all before turning 30.

Ian Purkayastha: Truffle Boy

Tahmiene Momtazi

Tahmiene Momtazi and Ian Purkayastha may be in different industries (she's a winemaker in Oregon and he sells truffles in New York), but they have similar backgrounds: both are children of immigrants and both broke into their respective industries at a young age. Tahmiene moved back home from New Zealand at age 24 when her father called and begged her to come make wine for him. Ian got started foraging for mushrooms in Arkansas when he was only 14 and selling them to local restaurants. We find out from Tahmiene and Ian what drives them and what advice they would give to anyone hoping to break into the food and wine industries.
