In the grand scheme of our lives, we often forget that, firstly and lastly, we all are what we eat. Not only our health but our entire personal happiness, satisfaction, and joy also depend upon the belly full of flavoursome feasts.
If you are an ardent foody, then you might say that all your grand life schemes revolve around tasty food. Though delightful eating delicious fares to one’s full content, preparing tasty-yummy food is an art of the profoundest kind.
Many food lovers find it troublesome even to think of preparing their meals. Those who love to cook often find short of time in their busy schedules. However, it is undesirable to keep yourself bereft of healthy, home-cooked, finely made fresh food due to any reason whatsoever.

Journey of A Foody
Coming from the heart of India, Delhi, Nidhi is fully Punjabi by heart. Settled in Bangalore for the last 16 years, her family consists of her husband, a school-going kid and a college-going youngster.
Reflecting on her long journey, Nidhi says, “Let me share with you today my story. Punjabis are known for their dancing skills, Bhangra, big hearts and big appetites. Having been brought up in a place like Delhi, which is famous for its Chaat corners, Punjabi food joints, and streets and gullies, which are a dream come true for a foodie, I faced typical problems in Bangalore as my taste buds are accustomed to Punjabi food. I then realized that many north Indians settled in Bangalore share the same sentiments.
Cooking, which has been my passion, came to my rescue, and I started my experiments with a small home kitchen.
Getting amazing feedback from friends and family gave me booster shots, and I started expanding my Kitchen to a larger clientele and to suit a variety of customer demands.”
Yummy Food for Connoisseurs
In no time, Nidhii’s kitchen became one of the most popular food joints for all the foodies from every corner of the mega-metropolis. Yet, with more fame came an increasing passion for Nidhi to match up to her hungry customers’ heightened expectations. Nonetheless, constantly innovating and surprising her clientele, Nidhi and her team of compassionate cooks kept augmenting their quality and taste further and further. All this is because, for Nidhi, Nidhii’s kitchen is a labour of love. “I love to cook and experiment, and my greatest joy is when people enjoy eating food cooked by me,” she insists.
Another customer, Amita Yellapurkar, says in her five-star praise, “Nidhi has been fantastic with her cooking. She understood my requirements very well, and the food was loved by all. I will surely order from her for my next home party!! Kid-friendliness: She was perfect with her levels of chilli for kids.”
Similarly, Ssayanti Das says, “We started by ordering regular meals from her kitchen and then decided to go for snack packets and dinner for our in-house party. She helped me choose and customize the menu, which was a super hit. The kids loved the boxes, and the dinner was good too. A very special mention of her bread roll is required. Thank You so much.”
Delicious Meal to Celebrate
Nidhii’s kitchen’s most significant USP is fresh, healthy home-cooked food which is finger-licking good! A big relief to people who cannot cook for want of time. Nidhi states, “I have continuously improvised, expanded and improved.”
