Experience the true essence of Japanese cuisine as CoCo ICHIBANYA marks its third anniversary at the vibrant Cyberhub outlet. With over 1400 outlets spanning 12 countries, CoCo ICHIBANYA is renowned for its delectable Japanese curry offerings. This anniversary celebration promises an unforgettable Japanese dining experience, complete with enticing offers and interactive activities for all to enjoy.
Devesh Srivastava, CEO of CoCo ICHIBANYA, India, expresses his excitement, “We are ecstatic to celebrate the anniversary of CoCo Ichibanya’s first outlet at Cyber Hub and unveil something new around Gurgaon as well. As the name suggests, Ichibanya means number one which reflects well in our menu, services and experience. With the celebration, we are bringing something new to the table, that is, Japanese comfort food, which is what most shoppers crave for especially after a shopping spree. As we aim to bring a bit of Japanese culture with our world famous curries, every aspect of the outlet has been carefully designed to bring the experience of Japan, keeping in mind the Indian tastes and preferences.”
Situated on the ground floor of Cyberhub, the restaurant seamlessly blends European interior design with Japanese traditions, embodying the essence of 'Yoshoku.' This fusion of modernity and tradition is evident in the ambiance and wax replicas of dishes that aid guests in making informed choices. With its signature white tiles, reminiscent of Yoshoku restaurants, this venue offers a warm and inviting space for casual get-togethers.
Beyond its culinary offerings, CoCo ICHIBANYA introduces Indian elements with dishes like Chicken Curry Keema and Paratha Curry Set. Amidst its inviting atmosphere, the restaurant provides an ideal setting for casual gatherings with friends and family. Devesh adds, The idea that one can have a non-sushi, non-sashimi and all curry Japanese is quite exciting for me and the entire CoCoICHI team. It is the perfect option for curry and spice lovers who are keen to try something different from the typical Indian and Mediterranean curries. We are also excited to see how customers will react to the customizable options we have for our curries as such a system does not yet exist at Indian restaurants.”
As the third anniversary celebration unfolds, CoCo ICHIBANYA presents an unparalleled dining experience that seamlessly blends the essence of Japan with Indian preferences. This celebration epitomizes their unwavering dedication to crafting extraordinary dining moments, in line with their 'number one' philosophy. If you're ready for a palate-pleasing journey, the captivating Cyberhub outlet of CoCo ICHIBANYA is waiting to welcome you.

Pondicherry, India, 19 December 2025: All Things Breakfast Pvt. Ltd. (ATB), a new-age food enterprise committed to reconnecting food with happiness, has announced the launch of its flagship brand, Darcy & Company. Based in the culturally vibrant town of Pondicherry, the micro-bakery specialises in artisanal, small-batch breakfast essentials, beginning with a thoughtfully curated range of protein- and fibre-enriched granolas.
Marking the launch is The Jane Austen Anthology, a limited-edition granola collection celebrating the 250th birth anniversary of one of literature’s most beloved authors. Drawing inspiration from the elegance, romance, and contrasts of Austen’s novels, the collection seamlessly blends literary storytelling with mindful nutrition.
Darcy & Company is the passion project of Rashmi Naik, Founder of All Things Breakfast. After over two decades in the corporate world, Naik embarked on a mid-life journey—alongside a close circle of friends and “sisters”—to create a brand rooted in purpose, better nutrition, and joy.
“Somewhere along the way, we started swinging between breakfasts that were super healthy but tasteless and those that were indulgent but carb-heavy,” says Rashmi Naik. “Darcy & Company is about restoring balance. Food should bring joy, not anxiety. Our granolas are made with activated seeds, local grains, and single-origin Indian ingredients, ensuring they are clean, nourishing, and genuinely delicious.”
Named after a cherished literary character, the brand reflects timeless charm, thoughtful craftsmanship, and emotional connection—values that are brought to life through its inaugural collection.
The Jane Austen Anthology transforms iconic settings and moods from Austen’s novels into culinary expressions. Each blend is inspired by a literary pairing and a classic flavour profile, from buttery shortbread notes inspired by Pride and Prejudice to elegant chocolate-orange nuances reflecting Emma. The range celebrates contrasts between rustic simplicity and refined elegance, marrying globally inspired flavours with premium, locally sourced Indian ingredients.
At the heart of Darcy & Company lies a strong commitment to quality, trust, and sustainability. Granolas are prepared in small batches and slow-baked only upon receiving orders, ensuring exceptional freshness. Ingredients are ethically and locally sourced, including oats from Kerala, nuts and seeds from Auroville, and single-origin chocolate from Pondicherry and Wayanad. A key differentiator is the use of activated nuts and seeds, soaked in saline water to enhance nutritional value and digestibility.
Beyond the product, the brand is driven by a purpose-led philosophy, focused on building a values-driven organisation that prioritises conscious consumption, transparency, and a respectful workplace culture.
“Darcy & Company is more than a micro-bakery,” adds Naik. “It’s about making mornings soulful and effortless. We want breakfast to be the new dinner—the most anticipated and enjoyable meal of the day.”
Darcy & Company’s granola range, including The Jane Austen Anthology, is now available for nationwide orders.

After more than a decade of being Mumbai’s go-to destination for authentic Japanese cuisine, Kofuku Mumbai enters an exciting new chapter as Tokki Tora. While the name has evolved, the heart of the brand remains unchanged. The flavours, the hospitality, and the spirit that Mumbai has cherished over the years continue just as before.
Kofuku has long been synonymous with soulful Japanese flavours, warm tatami-style dining, and memorable moments shared with friends and family. With Tokki Tora, the brand embraces its evolution through a fresh and playful identity that reflects its deep-rooted connection with guests and its vibrant personality.
At the centre of this transformation is Tokki Tora’s spirited rabbit mascot, a charming symbol of warmth, joy, and human connection. More than a visual element, the mascot acts as a friendly ambassador for the brand, embodying Tokki Tora’s promise of thoughtful hospitality and memorable dining experiences delivered with a playful twist. To celebrate this rebrand, Tokki Tora is set to roll out surprise giveaways, immersive Instagram-worthy moments, and engaging guest interactions. Curated collaborations and special pop-ups are also planned, making this transformation more than a name change—it marks a cultural moment for Japanese and Korean dining in Mumbai.
Sharing his thoughts on the rebrand, Amit Goel, Stakeholder, said, “Kofuku has been a beautiful journey filled with memories, people, and joy. As we turn the page, I’m excited to introduce Tokki Tora, carrying that same spirit forward in a new light. Our rabbit mascot brings playfulness and warmth, creating a deeper connection with every guest. This is not just a new name, but an evolution of the love we’ve built together, now with even more character and energy.”
Despite the new identity, guests can continue to enjoy the same much-loved menu offerings, including meticulously crafted sushi, comforting ramen bowls, delicate dim sums, and Korean Hengbok favourites such as Shin Noodle Soup, Vegetable Kimbap, and Fried Korean Chicken. These signature dishes are complemented by the warm hospitality that made Kofuku one of Mumbai’s most loved dining destinations. Tokki Tora adds a new layer of storytelling, blending Japanese and Korean traditions with contemporary cultural charm that resonates with today’s diners.
With outlets across Andheri, Lower Parel, and Powai, Tokki Tora proudly carries forward Kofuku’s culinary legacy while redefining the modern Japanese dining experience—authentic yet playful, rooted yet evolving.
Tokki Tora is not just a new name. It is the next chapter of a story Mumbai already loves, now infused with more warmth, character, and joy.
