Janet Maruzza
founder & director
Our story begins in bustling Kolkata, 1962, where a young Janet Maruzza got her first taste of the traditional flavours of the cultural capital of India—and it wouldn’t be until years later, down in Chennai, that she’d work in the spices and flavours of the south.
By blending these two quite diverse culinary cultures, something exciting and new was born.
But it didn’t stop there—she also travelled from west to east, taking all food items and utensils to cook for friends who appreciated good Indian food.
And in more recent decades, Janet has taken her wealth of knowledge and experience from her time in India, to spread that taste through Australia from her base of operations right here in Melbourne, using local produce and Australian-made products with no preservatives, to bring the kind of gustatory experience that comes from the freshest of ingredients.
