Till 2001, Jayant Jategaonkar, 73, worked as a purchase manager at a printing mill in Lower Parel. "All through my working years, I'd face trouble with my gut," remembers the Girgaum resident. The heartburn was the result of the food available at the canteen. "The rice had too much soda, the vegetables were half-cooked and the gravies were loaded with garam masala," he says. It was then that he decided he'd open an eatery that serves wholesome meals once he retired. "I hadn't the faintest idea how I would do it, but I knew I would."
