Two years ago, chef Joshua D’Souza, along with his wife Neha Manekia, started the Silverspoon Gourmet, a European food catering company. Having moved to a new kitchen in Dhanraj Industrial Estate at Lower Parel, a few months ago, next month they open their doors to foodies looking for culinary experience that does not bind them to the chair and table like in a restaurant.

The first event, on April 19, is an curated cheese experience, where Chef Joshua will whip up an eight-course meal and also give a demonstration of cooking with cheese. “People who are fed up of sit-down dinners can book a slot with us — it could be couples, friends or family. We have a capacity to host 40 people. This is a wonderful platform to meet like-minded people and learn more about the food you eat,” says Neha, when I visited them last week.
