Our Team

Haritha - Founder & Head Chef   
You won't stop laughing if you ever sat down for lunch with Haritha. The same goes for breakfast and supper as well, because while being incredible with her culinary skills she also likes to pair her food with laughter. As the Founder and Head Chef (both designations that she has a lot of puns for ), Haritha brings to this kitchen a 15 year long experience of working with artisanal and tribal communities as a development professional, a career that has since melded into this passionate initiative. Do ask her what she thinks about cultural politics or cinema or handicrafts, or all of them- you won't be disappointed with her engagement!

Rahul Ramakrishna - Principal Investor & Promotor

Film actor, culinary enthusiast, part time comic and full time father. Loves his pastas as much as his pacchadis and podis. The idea of Barrister Parvatheesam's Kitchen sprung into his mind one fine afternoon after a long, delightful lunch and siesta that was spent recollecting his favourite books from childhood. As our principal investor and promoter, Rahul's aim is to showcase our traditional heirloom recipes and products to the entire world in pursuit of good health and great food in the most fun manner possible. Currently, he spends his time between film acting and taste checking our products (a job he takes more seriously than any other). 

 

Priyanka - Operations Head

Operations Head Priyanka surfed the corporate world prior to taking up her role in the kitchen here because cooking up recipes is far more challenging than crunching numbers. She currently manoeuvres the complex tasks of running our entire business operations - be it with our staff or with all of you lovely customers. If our prompt and cheerful replies surprise you, you know you're talking to the friendliest warmest customer liaison aka Priyanka. We'd like to call her the anchor of our kitchen, the go-getter and the instinctive petter as she swears she can't stop petting every dog and cat she comes across! 

 

Ramesh & Lakshmi - Support Staff

Our staff are our strongest support system and we are proud of having the best amongst us with Ramesh and Lakshmi helming the packaging, quality control feedback and as our forever all-weather friends ( we take the weather very seriously whether or not we’re serious about other things you know ).
