Sri Akshaya Foods/Akshaya Kuberan Catering

Sri Akshaya Foods, also known as Akshaya Kuberan Catering, is located at No 73, P S Sivasamy Salai. We are right near Vivekananda College in Mylapore. This area has a lot of soul to it, and we feel like we are a part of that. Being near a college means there are always students and people walking by. Our catering business is mostly focused on traditional food. We aren't trying to do anything too modern or strange. We just stick to the recipes that we know people like. The kitchen is always the busiest part of our building. There is a lot of chopping, steaming, and the smell of roasted spices. It gets very hot, especially in the afternoons, but that’s the life of a cook. We do weddings and small family functions mostly. We don’t have a marketing team or a fancy website. Most people find us because they ate our food at a friend's house and asked for our number. That’s how it should be, really. We spend our mornings checking the vegetables that come in from the market and our evenings cleaning up for the next day. Mylapore is a great place to be because people here really appreciate good, simple food. We don't use any fancy corporate titles. We are just a group of people who enjoy making sure the rice is cooked right and the sambar tastes like home. It is a lot of work, but we have been at it for a long time now.
