The RVR Foods Legacy: Our Family Recipes and Process
From our family kitchen in Bengaluru to your celebrations, we have been serving traditional Iyengar feasts with love and madi adige since 1986.
Snehitare, with your blessings, we are celebrating 39 years of RVR Caterers. My father, Ranganath Iyengar, started this journey in 1986, and your support has brought us this far. I offer my heartfelt gratitude to all of you and promise to bring you even more new and traditional recipes.
Many people ask about our process for a wedding. It starts with a personal discussion to decide the menu, followed by a visit to the venue. Our team then plans every detail, and the preparation starts 48 hours before, often at 4 AM. Because of our strong team, we can manage multiple events with the same level of perfection.
I want to introduce you to the pillars of RVR, our family. Here is Jaganna, who has been cooking with us since before I was born. And this is our 'Speed Rajanna', who can cook for 10,000 people in a few hours. Our specialists like 'Holige Raganna' and 'Coffee Master' Ravi Kumar are the artists behind our authentic taste.
At this wedding reception for 1500 guests, we are serving a full-fledged menu with multiple sweets like Pheni and Champakali, along with Ghee Rice, Veg Kadai, and Channa Batura. It makes us happy to hear guests enjoying the food. For any of your functions, we promise to make it a delicious and smooth experience.
We are so grateful to Pradeep Eshwar of Parishrama Academy for his kind words. Before we begin serving, we always start with a prayer to Annapurneshwari, asking her to bless the food and the health of everyone who partakes in it. This tradition is the foundation of our service.
As the next generation carrying my father's legacy, I believe in facing every challenge with a positive spirit. Whether it's a small puja or a massive wedding, we accept the responsibility with humility and a promise to deliver our best.
This is my father, Ranganath Iyengar, the founder of our catering service. His vision, principles, and recipes are the guiding light for everything we do at RVR Foods.

About Our Legacy: The RVR Family & Our Process
When you book us for a wedding or major event, the real work begins 48 hours before your function. Because we insist on preparing every dish fresh and maintaining our madi adige (pure cooking) standards, our team often starts the prep work at 4 AM. This isn't just about cooking; it's about the planning that goes into ensuring every guest gets the same hot, authentic taste regardless of whether you have 25 or 10,000 guests.
Our story started in 1986 when my father, Ranganath Iyengar, founded RR Caterers. Today, as RVR Foods, that legacy is carried forward by the same team that has been with us for decades. We believe that catering is not just about the final plate served but the entire process behind it.
How We Work
Every event starts with a conversation. We prefer to visit your venue personally to understand the layout and logistics before we ever turn on a stove. This hands-on approach allows us to plan exactly how we will set up our live counters and buffet stations to ensure smooth service for your guests.
Our Team Is Our Family
When you hire RVR Foods, you aren't just getting staff; you are getting our family. From 'Speed Rajanna' who can manage high-volume cooking for thousands without compromising on quality, to our 'Coffee Master' Ravi Kumar who ensures your wedding filter coffee is perfect, every team member brings their own specialty. We operate on the principle of naga nagutta badisbeku (we must serve with a smile), because we know that the attitude of the person serving the food is just as important as the taste of the dishes themselves.
Quality Without Shortcuts
We specialize in traditional Iyengar catering for weddings, housewarmings, and religious functions. Whether you need a full sit-down banana leaf meal or a premium fusion buffet, we use our own family recipes and homemade masalas. We do not rely on pre-made stocks or shortcuts. This is the trust my father built over 39 years, and it is the promise we bring to your event today.
