Chef’s
Private Table
“Intimate dinners cooked by India’s most soulful chefs — not on any menu, shared only by word of mouth.”
“A seven-course Goan-Portuguese journey in a private Fontainhas mansion — where colonial heritage meets modern mastery.”
“An after-hours Awadhi biryani experience in a Lucknow residence, served under chandeliers with 200-year-old grace.”
This isn’t dining. It’s a conversation in flavor.
What Makes It Rare
No Public Menus
Chefs cook what’s in season, what’s in their heart — not what’s trending.
Hidden Kitchens
From a chef’s Mumbai balcony to a spice-scented courtyard in Jaipur — never a commercial restaurant floor.
Tiny Tables
Usually just 2–4 guests. Some chefs host only once a month.
Unlisted. Unreviewed. Unfiltered
These dinners don’t appear on Zomato, Instagram, or Google. They’re passed through trust.
“India’s best chefs are tired of noise. They want to cook for people who ask why — not just what’s trending. I quietly connect those chefs with those guests. No brand deals. No influencers. Just real food, real talk.”

The Curation Journey
You tell me:
- Your food passion (“I love heirloom rice” / “Want to understand Chettinad fire”)
- Occasion (birthday, proposal, solo pilgrimage)
- City or willingness to travel
Quiet Possibilities
I check what’s quietly possible this month based on chef availability, mood, and season.
The Alignment
If there’s alignment, I share: Who’s cooking, where (general area), vibe, and date/time window.
“You say yes (or not) — zero pressure.”
Just say the word.
“Most people eat. Few truly taste. If you’ve ever wanted to sit where the magic begins — just say the word.”
In the Chamber of Curiosities
Can I choose the chef or cuisine?
I match your curiosity with a chef who’s ready to share. It’s less about “choosing,” more about resonating.
Where do these dinners happen?
Private homes, backyards, or quiet corners of closed restaurants. Locations are shared only after confirmation.
How do I know if something’s available?
There’s no public calendar. Tell me your food story — and I’ll let you know if a chef is open to hosting soon.
How fast do you reply?
Within 4 hours. Often while your message is still warm.
