Charith N. Silva, the 29-year-old founder of the ‘Wild Cookbook’, has been featured on the Forbes’ ‘30 Under 30’ list. 

Known for his sensational videos of cooking in outdoor settings, Silva was featured under The Arts (Art & Style, Food & Drink) category of the 30 Under 30 Asia 2025 list, which recognises emerging entrepreneurs under the age of 30.
