Ibetombi Catering Services

Ibetombi Catering Services is located right in Koramangala at 58/2 Vi Bk Lbs Marg. If you know the area, you know the traffic can be a real headache, but we’ve lived here long enough to know the backstreets. The kitchen is where we spend almost all our time. It’s hot, loud, and smells like toasted spices from morning until late at night. We started this because we liked the way food brings people together in our neighborhood. It’s not a giant factory or anything like that. It’s just me and a few others who know our way around a large pot. We do a lot of chopping by hand because that’s just how we learned to do it. Sometimes our hands are sore and our backs ache, but that’s the life of a cook. We’ve done small family lunches and big weddings where we had to feed hundreds. The delivery van is old and sometimes the engine acts up, but it gets the food where it needs to go. We don't have fancy menus with gold lettering. We just tell people what we can make and we do it. Sometimes we run out of a certain ingredient and one of us has to run down to the local market to grab more. It’s a bit chaotic but it works. We just want the food to taste like home and for people to leave the table feeling full. It is a long day every day, but we enjoy the work.
