I take those classic notes and tweak the spice profile or presentation, such as transforming a standard salad into an Andhra-style Raw Mango Salad or turning simple samosas into a modern cannelloni chaat, to ensure your event feels fresh and personal. My journey is about honouring tradition while keeping things exciting. When I work with a client, I do not just repeat old recipes. I look at the classic base that Nita Mehta perfected—the balance of spice, texture, and aroma—and ask, how can we make this resonate with a modern event setting? This heritage is our guarantee of quality. When we were selected as jury members for the Indian Restaurant Awards 2024, it confirmed that our blend of old-school technique and new-school style is hitting the right notes. Whether it is a unique twist on a raw mango salad or a fusion chaat station, the goal is always to deliver a dining experience that feels authentic to our roots but relevant to your party. We bring this same level of attention and culinary rigour to every single platter and live station we set up in Delhi NCR. ## About NM Foods by Tanya I grew up in Chef Nita Mehta's kitchen, always finding new ways to jazz up the classics. Our approach is simple: keep the soul of her legendary recipes but change the delivery to suit today’s modern parties. It is family, it is fun, and it is a little bit of magic.
