Weddings, Eid, birthdays, graduations, office lunches and the quiet gatherings that follow a funeral. We have cooked for ten people and for five hundred, and the food goes out the same way either time: halal, made that morning, and hot when it reaches the table.
Per-head pricing
The bigger the party, the lower the per-head price — the kitchen is more efficient at scale and we pass that on. Every bracket includes rice, a meat dish, a vegetarian dish, salad, bread and chutney.

Pickup is the cheapest option, delivery adds a fee by zone, and full service — where we set up, serve and clear away — is quoted on the day and the venue.

We fed a hundred and forty people at our walima. The mantu ran out first, which is exactly what I told her would happen and exactly what she told me to order more of. Everything arrived hot, labelled and on time.

We book the office lunch here every month now. Half our team is vegetarian and this is the only caterer who does not treat that as an inconvenience — the veggie trays are as good as the meat ones.
Rated 5 out of 5
We needed food for a funeral at short notice and were treated with enormous kindness. The trays arrived quietly, set up, and she would not let us pay extra for the trouble.
Rated 5 out of 5
Ordered for eighty guests two days before Eid, which was unfair of me. She said yes anyway and the Kabuli pulao was the best I have had outside Kabul.
Rated 5 out of 5
Forty lola kebab, a bread platter and two trays of shor nakhud for my father's seventieth. He asked me three times where I got the food from.
Rated 5 out of 5
Ordered the large Kabuli pulao with lamb and the chicken kebab platter for my daughter's graduation. Not a grain of rice left. Already booked for next summer.
