Dietary
Jain, vegetarian, vegan and allergen handling
Pune guest lists almost always include pure vegetarian, Jain and no-onion-no-garlic eaters, and increasingly vegan and gluten-free guests. We run those as separate kitchen lines with their own utensils, oil and counters rather than as an afterthought tray at the end of the buffet.
Separate kitchen lines for vegetarian, Jain, satvik and vegan food, each with its own utensils, pans and fresh oil.
No onion, no garlic, no root vegetables on a Jain line — and the base gravies rebuilt rather than stripped.
Counter signage on every station with veg and non-veg marking and the major allergens named.
Fasting and upvas menus prepared with sendha namak, kept off the regular kitchen line entirely.
Full ingredient lists sent ahead where a guest has a nut, dairy, gluten or sesame allergy.
The dietary counters physically separated in the layout, with their own stewards who stay on that counter.

FAQs
Chaat and Street Food Catering questions
Is street food safe when it is catered?
Everything is prepped in our own kitchen with the same sourcing, cold chain and temperature logs as the rest of our menu — nothing is bought from a roadside vendor and reheated. The counters are styled like a thela; the kitchen behind them is not.
Is the pani for pani puri safe?
It is made in our kitchen with RO water, chilled, and carried in sealed containers. That is the single dish people worry about most, and it is the one we control most tightly.
Do you do Jain chaat?
Yes — no onion, no potato, no garlic. Ragda made without potato, sev puri and dahi puri built on raw banana and moong, and a separate counter with its own chutneys and its own sev.
Can street food work as the whole dinner, or only as snacks?
It can be the whole dinner if you plan it as one — pav bhaji, misal, frankies and a chaat line together are a real meal. Chaat alone is a snack, and guests will be hungry by ten.
Can the counters be themed?
Yes, with thela-style carts, hand-painted signage and vendor-style uniforms. The carts are part of our kit; custom signage and props are quoted separately.
How far ahead should we book?
Six to ten weeks for October to February weddings and the Diwali corporate season. Outside that, two to three weeks is usually comfortable, and short-notice bookings taken when the kitchen has capacity.
Can we taste the menu before we confirm?
Yes. We arrange a tasting for confirmed enquiries, and the final dish list, spice levels and sweetness are locked after it rather than before. Sharing the date, venue and guest count gets you a written per-plate quote the same day.
