Three monthly plans compared by price, menu and the kind of household each one suits.

We offer three lunch plans, and the right one depends less on what you eat at home than on how often you want variety.
The veg plan is ₹2,640 a month for 22 lunches, or ₹120 a meal. It follows our four-week menu with a different kuzhambu or sambar, rasam, two poriyals and curd every day, plus appalam twice a week and a payasam on Fridays. Most of our subscribers, about two-thirds, are on this plan. It suits people who eat lunch at a desk and want something light enough not to bring on an afternoon slump.
The non-veg plan is ₹3,740 a month, or ₹170 a meal. The base is the same, but every day one item is replaced by fish or chicken: a fish kuzhambu on Mondays, chicken chettinad on Wednesdays and so on, with egg curry on some days. We use seer fish or sankara depending on the market and boneless chicken thigh. It is a good fit for people who do not cook meat at home but miss it.
The no onion, no garlic veg plan is ₹2,860 a month. It is cooked in a separate batch at the start of the morning, before onion and garlic come out, with its own vessels. Families observing a fast day, or older relatives who prefer satvik food, often choose it. You can switch plans at the end of any month, and some subscribers mix, taking veg on Tuesdays and Saturdays and non-veg on other days. Tell us on WhatsApp and we will price it.
