When planning your menu, keep in mind that our live tandoor and tawa stations require adequate space at your venue for that fresh, smoky flavor, and we recommend pre-ordering our slow-cooked Nalli Nihari at least a day in advance to ensure the meat is tender and the flavors are fully developed. ### Authentic Mughlai Flavors, The Babji Way We believe food is about memories, not just catering. Whether you are hosting a wedding, a nikah, or an intimate gathering, our Mughlai menu focuses on the deep, traditional spices that generations of families in Mumbai have come to love. We do not believe in mass-produced, bland food. Everything we serve, from the heavy starters to the main course gravies, is prepared with the same dedication we use in our own kitchen. ### Signature Dishes & Live Stations Our live stations are where the magic happens. We bring the tandoor (clay oven) and tawa to your venue so your guests can enjoy hot, fresh food. Our signature Tandoori Fried Fish, Malai Tikka, and Butter Garlic Seekh are staples for a reason—they bring a smoky, rich profile that pairs perfectly with our fluffy, fresh naan. For those who love a heavy, slow-cooked meal, our Nalli Nihari and Bheja Masala are prepared with a slow-simmering process that lasts for hours. This technique ensures that the marrow is rich and the meat is tender enough to eat with just a piece of bread. ### Practical Planning - **Service Style:** We offer individual plated service for our Mughlai buffets, which includes professional management staff to keep the stations clean and well-stocked. - **Customization:** You can mix and match items from our Mughlai, Bohra, and Chinese selections to create a menu that fits your specific guest list. - **Location:** We cater across the Mumbai Metropolitan Area. If you are hosting a smaller event, you can also consider our banquet hall in Mazgaon, which comes equipped for both table seating and traditional dastarkhwan setups. ## About Babji Caterers At Babji, we cook from the heart, just like my family has done for generations. We are Mazgaon locals who believe that great food brings people together, whether it is a small family dinner or a large wedding feast.
