About Luxury Mughlai & North Indian Catering
Delhi Ka Zaika, Mumbai Ki Mehfil
We bring the real taste of Delhi’s old streets and royal kitchens straight to your party. It’s all about dil se (from the heart) cooking, whether it’s Biryani that’s got stories or Nihari that’s pure history in a bowl. If you want a proper Jama Masjid catering Mumbai vibe for your next event, that’s what we do best.
Zero Stress, Full Mehfil
I know planning a feast can get stressful. So, I handle everything - from helping you pick a menu to setting up with brass chafing dish presentation for that royal touch. You just focus on your guests and enjoy your mehfil (gathering). I cater for small family dinners, big weddings, Iftar nights, and even office parties. Crowd size? No problem - from 20 up to 800 hungry folks. Your menu, your way - you can keep it classic or go wild, I’m all for custom Mughlai wedding menu ideas.
Khana Khazana - What’s Cooking
You feel hungry just reading this. Starters like Chicken Afghani Malai Tikka, Kaju Cheese Kabab, Mutton Seekh Kebab set the mood. Then there’s rich Mutton Korma, Nalli Nihari, Butter Chicken, spicy Changezi and my Boneless Angara Chicken. I do proper biryanis too - chicken, mutton, or my DZ Special Kepsa Rice with a little twist. Top it off with Shahi Tukda, Awadhi Kheer, or Gulab Jamun for the sweet ending.
Khas Mauke Ka Special
If you want something really unique for Bakra Eid, bring your Qurbani ka gosht (sacrificial meat) and I’ll turn it into a Bakra Eid special feast - raan, gravies, biryani, you name it.

My Story
Sab bolte hain, ‘Yeh Dilli ka Korma nahi, yeh toh Dilli ki jaan hai!’ That’s the soul of Zaika. We started out in Jama Masjid ki galliyan (lanes) with just a dream—bring the real Mughlai zaika to Mumbai. For us, khana (food) is not business, it’s our heritage, our story. Mid-Day ne hume ‘Iconic Luxury Restaurant’ bola, but asli (real) award is your smile after tasting our slow-cooked Nihari. Every dish has a kissa (tale). Yeh hai asli pyaar (this is true love).
My Work
Authentic Mughlai & North Indian Food - Our restaurants serve rich Mughlai classics like Mutton Raan, slow-cooked Nihari, creamy Butter Chicken, and Biryani.
Luxury Catering & Festival Offers - We provide catering for events and have special festival deals, including Bakra Eid catering with your Qurbani meat.
Signature Thaal Experiences - Try Akbari Thaal Mughlai feast, Dostana Thaal for friends, or Thaal-E-Cheen Indo-Chinese fusion platter. Each thaal feeds 4-6.
