Behind every plate we serve is a story. Get to know the team and the philosophy that drives our culinary studio in Mahalakshmi.

A feature in The Nod Magazine that captures my journey as an entrepreneur since launching Sage & Saffron in 2012. It's a pleasure to share my story and my passion for culinary creation.

About Meet the Visionary

Our process starts with your memories. Whether you want to recreate a first date menu or turn a childhood snack into something sophisticated, we translate those moments into dishes. We operate on a philosophy where the timeline matters, ensuring that even last minute inspirations get the attention they deserve.

Since 2012, our studio in Mahalakshmi has been more than a kitchen. It is where we rethink what a buffet or a gift box can represent. When you sit down with us, we do not just talk about dishes. We talk about the moments that shaped you.

Our founder, Aditi Dugar, leads a team that thrives on the unusual. We take the humble murukku or common rusks and give them a complete glow up. It is not about making food look pretty, although we focus heavily on presentation. It is about making sure that when your guests take a bite, they taste a specific part of your story.

We avoid the standard, cookie-cutter approach. You will not find predictable menus here. Instead, you find combinations like Kerala appam paired with Thai mushroom larb, or desserts that challenge traditional mithai norms. Everything we do is rooted in modern Indian fusion, aimed at people who want their events to feel like an extension of their own personality.

If you are planning an event in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, you can expect us to bring that same intensity to your project. We handle everything from intimate sit-down dinners to large weddings, corporate gatherings, and detailed gifting.

Our goal is simple. We want your guests to walk away remembering the flavours and the thought behind them. If you have a wild idea, we are the ones to talk to. We do not just feed your guests. We provide a conversation starter.
