Our chefs focus on maintaining the textural integrity of delicate items like Prawn Tempura and our signature Hanetsuki Gyoza. Even in off-site catering settings across Delhi NCR, we ensure the batter remains light and the dumplings arrive with that distinct, crisp lattice intact, rather than turning soft during transport. ### A Prelude to Your Event In Japanese dining, the appetizer is not just a filler; it is an exercise in restraint and precision. Whether you are hosting a corporate lunch in Gurugram or a private celebration in South Delhi, our appetizers are designed to introduce the palate to the authentic flavours of Japan. ### The Art of the Hot Starter Our hot appetizers focus on technique and temperature. The Hanetsuki Gyoza is perhaps the best example of this. By pan-frying and steaming simultaneously, we achieve a golden, crisp wing that connects the dumplings, providing a satisfying crunch that gives way to a juicy, umami-packed filling. Similarly, our Prawn Tempura is served with a focus on batter-to-protein ratio, ensuring it remains impossibly light rather than oily. ### Refreshing Cold Selections To balance the richness of fried items, we offer cold starters that cleanse the palate. The Agedashi Tofu provides a classic texture contrast—silken interior encased in a crisp exterior, served in a savoury dashi broth. For something lighter, our Japanese Kani Salad—featuring crab sticks, crisp cucumber, and our signature Goma dressing—brings the seasonal freshness found in our Saket and Golf Course Road restaurant menus directly to your event table. ### Catering Logistics We handle the entire process. From the ceramic serving ware to the temperature-controlled transport of our sushi and small plates, our team manages the setup so you can focus on your guests. We cater for groups of 20 or more, bringing the same attention to detail to your home or office that we provide in our dining rooms. ## About Ebisu At Ebisu, we believe a meal is a conversation. Whether it is our signature winged gyoza or a refreshing kani salad, we bring the Omotenashi spirit of our Saket and Gurugram kitchens directly to your event table.
