MOGLU, known as 'The Edgy Veggie Restaurant', has recently opened its doors in central Bengaluru on February 26th. This premium establishment celebrates vegetables in all their decadence and glory, promising to usher in a renaissance in vegetarian cuisine. Situated at 1 Sobha on St Marks Road, MOGLU transcends the ordinary with its borderless vegetarian offerings.

Co-founded by Ankita Shree, a former IRS officer turned entrepreneur, and Dr. Kiran Narayanan, a computational physicist who pursued a culinary career after training at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York, MOGLU crafts a cuisine that blends cross-cultural influences on a plate. Over three years, the couple curated a holistic dining experience, showcasing their unmistakable signature. Chef-driven and vegetable-forward, MOGLU elevates seasonal ingredients with culinary magic. The restaurant operates under Mamacoco, a vegetarian-forward food and beverage group, offering fun and complex vegetarian all-day dining.

Ankita Shree, positioned as Managing Director at MOGLU, emphasizes the restaurant's commitment to providing more choice, better quality, and innovation in vegetarian dining. She envisions MOGLU's sophisticated vegetarian cuisine appealing to vegetarians, meat-eaters, and flexitarians alike.
