Menu
Snacks
Mains
Desserts
Function by function
Built around office timings, office power points and the fact that there is no kitchen. Everything is cooked off site and finished on induction where you point us.
As the floor comes down, over about half an hour
Passed and stationed together, so people who will not queue still get fed.
The main hour
Counter formats that clear fast, with a full vegetarian counter run of its own rather than a section at the end of the line.
The last twenty minutes
Cleared, waste removed and the office handed back usable before the team leaves.
Every function above can be made pure vegetarian, Jain, satvik or vegan on its own kitchen line. Dishes are cooked at your venue rather than transported ready-made.
How it runs
The same eight steps every time, so you always know what is owed and by whom. On the day itself the team is on site well before guests are: four hours on site before service, and six hours for a full wedding spread.
1 · Enquiry
Date, venue and guest count. Nothing else is needed to start.
2 · Written quote
A per-plate quote in writing the same day, itemised by function and counter.
3 · Tasting
Arranged for confirmed enquiries. Spice levels and the dish list are locked here.
4 · Booking
An advance holds the date. The menu can still move; the date cannot be double-sold.
5 · Venue recce
Power, gas permissions, lift and load-in access, and the counter layout plan.
6 · Load-in
Four hours on site before service for a buffet, six hours for a full wedding spread.
7 · Service
One steward per 25 guests on a buffet, one steward per 12 guests when plated, with a named supervisor throughout.
8 · Clearance
Full clearance, waste removal and venue handover before the team leaves.
Contract and invoicing
Cost
These are the same bands quoted everywhere else on this site. The number inside a band moves with the menu, the counter count, the service style and the guest count — not with the page you happen to be reading.

FAQs
Yes — that is the normal format. Induction counters in the cafeteria, a meeting room or the terrace, with everything cooked in our kitchen and finished on site. No gas, no open flame, no kitchen needed.
We load in outside working hours or through the service lift where the building requires it, and setup happens in the hour before service rather than through the morning. Building access timings are confirmed with your admin team beforehand.
Both. Crockery looks better and is included in the rate; compostable disposables suit a stand-up team lunch with no washing area and are the practical choice in most offices.
Yes. Tell us the per-head number and the headcount and we will build the menu to it rather than quoting a menu and then negotiating down.
Full clearance, waste removal and handover before the team leaves, so the office is usable the next morning. That is part of the rate, not an extra.
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.
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.
Tastings before booking, live counters at your venue, and one supervisor with you all evening.
