Questions

Before you subscribe

When do I need to order, and when does food arrive?
Lunch orders close at 10:30 am and arrive between 12 noon and 1:30 pm; dinner orders close at 5 pm and arrive between 7:30 and 9 pm. Plan meals come automatically, so you only message us to change or pause.
Can I pause my plan when I'm away?
Yes. Tell us on WhatsApp by 9 pm the evening before and we skip the day. You can pause up to 6 days a month; paused days are added to the end of your plan.
Can you make it less oily, less spicy or without onion and garlic?
Yes. Light-oil and mild versions are free on request. Niramish (no onion, no garlic) meals need a day's notice. We can't promise a nut-free or allergen-free kitchen, so please tell us about allergies before you order.
What do you cook with?
Kachchi ghani mustard oil, fresh fish and vegetables bought every morning at Jadavpur and Bagha Jatin markets, Gobindobhog and Miniket rice and RO-filtered water. No colours, no MSG and no reused oil.
How is the food packed?
Plan meals come in our steel tiffin carriers: we collect yesterday's carrier when we drop today's, and every carrier is washed in hot water. Trial and single meals come in compostable bagasse boxes.
How do I pay?
UPI or cash. Plans are paid in advance for the week or month; trial meals are paid on delivery; office and event orders need a 30% advance to confirm the date.
Do you cook on Sundays?
Sunday is our kitchen's day off for daily meals. Office and event orders of 25 people or more can be booked for Sundays with three days' notice.
