SaveEat is India's innovative food-saving app that aims to combat food waste in the vibrant hospitality industry. With a mission to create a sustainable future and foster a zero-food waste India, SaveEat is set to revolutionize our approach to food consumption. India, known for its diverse culinary landscape, unfortunately, witnesses tons of fresh and tasty food being wasted daily in the hospitality sector due to reasons like over-preparing and fewer orders. SaveEat recognizes this problem and is determined to turn it into an opportunity for change.
The SaveEat app empowers users to access fresh and delicious food at affordable prices while also reducing the environmental impact caused by unsold meals. Rather than waiting for food to reach its shelf life, SaveEat encourages consumption before that point. Founder & CEO Sneh Binny acknowledges the concerning issue of unnecessary disposal of perfectly consumable food and presents SaveEat as a practical and innovative solution benefiting restaurants, consumers, and the environment. Inspired by successful brands like Too Good To Go, Karma, Olio, and Flashfood, SaveEat has arrived in India with a resounding commitment to making a lasting impact on the nation's food loss crisis.
SaveEat works hand in hand with restaurant owners to ensure that perfectly edible food finds its way to people's plates by facilitating the sale of meals at unbelievable discounts before their shelf life expires. This approach enables eateries to sell everything they prepare daily, ensuring zero wastage. If meals are not sold in time, possibly before the store closes for the day, SaveEat also helps facilitate the donation of food, ensuring it is consumed when it is perfectly edible.
By using SaveEat, consumers not only enjoy incredible savings on their favourite dishes but also actively contribute to a greener planet. The app offers a vast selection of cuisines and an ever-growing network of participating restaurants, making it the go-to platform for those seeking affordable and sustainable food options. SaveEat is committed to building a community-driven movement that helps individuals save food, save money, and save the Earth all at once!
Furthermore, SaveEat has received the prestigious "Best Concept of the Year" award at the esteemed Food Connoisseurs India Convention 2023, recognizing its innovative approach and significant impact in combating food waste. To support the SaveEat initiative and promote sustainable living, we encourage individuals, businesses, and organizations to join this movement. Together, we can champion the reduction of perfectly edible surplus food, protect the environment, and foster a healthier, more equitable society.
SaveEat is currently available on Android and will be launching for iOS users next month. For more information, please visit https://saveeat.in/.

In a city buzzing with new-age bars and polished lounges, a fresh entrant is raising its glass to nostalgia. Mirth, a 65-seater tucked just off Indiranagar’s 100 Feet Road, is not chasing trends but rewriting them with heart, history, and handcrafted detail.
Founded by four lifelong friends, Sundeep Reddy, Arsau Elango, Santosh Balan, and Prasanna Govindappa, Mirth is built on twenty-five years of shared pub memories in old Bangalore. Once just an idea in their group chat, it is now a warm, whiskey-rich cocktail bar designed for easy conversations, cosy evenings, and nights that blur seamlessly into laughter.
Once a corporate office, the space has been transformed into a glowing, golden-lit haven with interiors meant to flow as naturally as the drinks. Every corner carries the imprint of the founders’ friendship, creating an atmosphere that feels both personal and contemporary.
The beverage program, crafted by Dev Narveker (Petisco, Goa) and led by Head Mixologist Omkar Vidhyadhar Parab, leans into bold signatures and refined classics. Highlights include Pour Me A Slice (whiskey infused with gouda and blue cheese, swirled with cherry and hibiscus sake), Martini Revolver (a tequila–mezcal mix with house-made jalapeño brine), and Slow Current (a chilli-spiced highball with Gundu pepper and sumac). For lighter sips, options like Clear Intention and Lavender Line add a fizzy, playful edge.
“Start light and finish strong, move from fizzy and fruity to bold and boozy,” says Omkar, laying down the path through Mirth’s cocktail map. The extensive back bar ensures purists won’t feel left out either.
At the helm of the kitchen is Chef Baljeet Singh Mehra, whose stints across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, New Zealand, and top Indian kitchens bring “fusion without confusion” to the table. Expect dishes like Sunny Side South (Mirth’s take on Goa’s Ros Omelette stuffed with Asian chicken, served with Malvani curry), East Meets Mezze (a hummus-edamame-sriracha blend), Crackle Theory pork, and Napoli Heatwave spaghetti in chilli oil.
Each founder brings a unique flavour to the venture, Sundeep Reddy, active partner at Roxie, blends engineering precision with F1 fandom. Arsau Elango, finance professional-turned-nightlife enthusiast, contributes global influences and music sensibilities. Santosh Balan, with 20 years of risk advisory, adds depth alongside his passion for cooking. Prasanna Govindappa, an IT veteran, returned from global assignments to help carve a niche for Mirth.
Together, their shared history is visible in every cocktail, playlist, and plate. Guests may even catch them at the bar, sipping on Mirth’s signature Old Flame (a sherry-whiskey concoction) while digging into wok-tossed chilli basil chicken. In an age of Instagram-driven dining, Mirth is refreshingly old-school, prioritising good music, warm hospitality, bold drinks, and food that comforts while surprising. It’s a neighbourhood bar designed not for flash-in-the-pan trends but for the timeless joy of gathering.

South Delhi has welcomed a striking new entrant to its premium dining scene with the launch of Raiya, a cosmopolitan restaurant that reimagines Indian fusion dining. Officially opened on 5th September, Raiya takes inspiration from the Sanskrit word for treasure, bringing together global flavours, Indian artistry, and immersive design to redefine modern casual luxury.
At Raiya, food is treated as celebration. The menu blends cosmopolitan inspirations with Indian refinement, featuring dishes that embody the philosophy of fusion. Highlights include Mooradabadi with Thinly Sliced Sourdough, a heritage recipe reinvented with contemporary technique, and Pinwheel Ravioli, where ghee-roasted mushrooms meet delicate pasta craftsmanship. The mains showcase indulgent creations like Maharaja Cauli and Royal Spring Chicken, while desserts such as Timeless Tiramisu and Lotus Biscoff Royale Cheesecake bridge tradition with modern indulgence.
The bar too is designed as an experience, offering signature cocktails that surprise and delight. Standouts include Mystic Gold, a sparkling elderflower-based drink; The Hidden Gem, presented in a treasure box with smoky theatrics; and Elixir of Gold, Raiya’s showstopper featuring real edible gold glitter.
Raiya’s philosophy extends beyond the plate into its design. The restaurant’s interiors are a study in duality, one half inspired by India’s cultural opulence with temple-like textures, warm tones, and intricate details, and the other half echoing Victorian elegance through arched detailing, soft lighting, and curated vintage European accents. Together, these contrasting elements create a dialogue between past and present, East and West, and tradition and modernity, offering guests more than a meal, an immersive journey.
Speaking at the launch, Priyam Chauhan, Founder of Raiya, shared, “For me, it is a dream turned into a treasure, built from passion and a deep love for storytelling through food and design. One half of Raiya celebrates the warmth of India, while the other embodies contemporary global elegance. Together, they tell the story of a new India: rooted in heritage, yet confident in its global expression.”
With its distinctive culinary approach and immersive atmosphere, Raiya positions itself as a cultural treasure in the heart of South Delhi, inviting diners to explore its unique interpretation of fusion.
