Manoj Kumar once said ..Every human basic necessity is ” Roti Kapada Aur Makaan { Food , Cloth and Shelter } ” and from thereon , this quote has been used for years by our politicians in their poll promises.
How funny it may sound but it’s a reality , Food always tops the priority chart of any human being and it supersede all other wishes and desires .
Many startup has been trying to capture this high potential market with innovative offering . Although food aggregator are there which gives wide variety of option in meal and restro to choose from , but they are still ” MADE IN professional kitchen ” and misses the warmth and lightness of home cooked food .Specially home cooked simple and hygienic food is what people are on lookout for who are staying away from their loved ones . So when Mumbai got their ” Dabba Wala’s ” , NCR has been lacking on such service .
DabbaGul is a startup which try to bridge the gap by providing home-cooked food on weekdays delivered at doorstep . They have pre-fixed menu everyday which prevent hassle of selecting meals on daily basis . You can order you meal /Dabba everyday over App or Phone or can pre- book meals for longer duration for lunch or dinner or both . You can even choose time slot to receive your Dabba as per your preferred lunch hours .
I tried my hand and my stomach over one of their lunch menu ( Veg one ) . The content of the Dabba delivered to me has :
-
4 units of unleavened flatbread / Chapati /Roti
-
150 ml – Seasonal veg curry
-
150 ml – pulse /dal
-
50 gms Salad
-
100 gms Steam Rice
*Quantity are close approximation based on size of the containers
Packaging : Overall packed in Pizza delivery shaped box, it hold good the content inside without fear if spill of . Also after finishing meal , you can put back the empty container in this box which help in keeping your lunch place clean .
Quantity : With 4 units of Roti and box full of Rice is more than sufficient as meal for 1 . Even Curry and pulse were enough to finish the main course .
Taste : Rice were well cooked , Rotis were soft and fresh . Dal has balance of spices and flavors as per north Indian taste . Curry has some extra oil which can be drained or reduce but it definitely tasted like one prepared keeping health and taste in mind .
Overall , it tasted like what was expected and though I really missed on a small portion of ” DESERT ” or Sweet to finish my meal on a HIGH NOTE . But may be everyone doesn’t have carving or have sweet tooth like me 🙂
Although currently they are serving only in Limited parts of GURGAON but I surely wish to see them covering entire NCR region as Office goes /Students definitely need a organised home made food delivery system as an option to help them switch from unhygienic street side food . Beacause as the DABBAGUL’s tagline rightly captures :
” HAPPINESS IS HOMEMADE “
