These curated recipes offer a glimpse into culinary stylings from countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Japan and Greece, among others. Each meal kit comes with recipes and ingredients for each of three courses, excluding pantry staples like salt, oil, sugar and eggs.

“The idea was to not pick the most common recipes from each country. When we curated the Thailand box for instance, instead of opting to put their national dish Pad Thai, we chose to put Pad see korat, which is more of a regional dish”, reveals Barboza. The two have taken a brief sabbatical to come up with ‘a la carte’ options, and are likely to resume business by the end of this month.

“In the past few months, we realised it had become difficult for us to compete with other social activities, as people began to go out more. It wasn’t possible to pursue options that come together in an hour or two. So we’ve adapted to making recipes that are easier and take about half an hour to cook,” Sheth says.
