Yum Kitchen – One stop destination for All Your Late Night Food Needs!

In amidst of uncertainty of funding and negativity on whole food tech startups world, there are a handful of companies that are able to survive and sustain in the market with unit level profit. These companies are more concerned about their expenditure, profits and losses over GMV or revenue. In this article, I want to introduce one such startup operating from HSR layout (peaceful residential area) of Bangalore. They have taken baby steps and built a fixed prototype that is able to sustain on its own, grow month-on-month by optimizing its supply-chain, procurement of items and delivery system. Let’s break the suspense! I am talking about YumKitchen, a food startup that operates in the late night, specialised in Chinese, North Indian and Continental cuisines.This is a startup co-founded by 3 young passionate entrepreneurs who want make a difference in Food industry by supplying yummy (yum is taken from yummy) food at a reasonable price in quickest time.




Deepak, the co-founder, left his high paying job to purse his entrepreneurial journey was accompanied by his friends Nirvan and Avinash in making YumKitchen live. Let’s find more about his journey and also the future plans of this venture.

What is YumKitchen and how was it started?
YumKitchen is late night restaurant catering food to Midnight Madness (techies, gamers, employees, students etc). We are operating from Bangalore (main kitchen is in HSR layout, and extended kitchen is in Electronic City). We started Yum kitchen 7 months back. We started YumKitchen as online QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) that serves Indian style of food made by the cuisine specialists catering to everyone.

I always have passion for entrepreneurship. I started and closed a homemade food company 4 years back when I was working at Puma. Though I was working as a full time employee with good salary, there was this entrepreneurship bug on the back of my mind. After settling all financial commitments, I began to think of starting something big and branded. For 1 year, I have done an in-depth analysis of Food industry and opportunities in various food industry segments. From my research, it was clear that this is an unorganised industry and people are willing to stick a brand who can supply tasty food with best-in-class service in terms of delivery, quantity and punctuality.

What is the market size of your startup?
According to ibef.org, India Food Service is going to grow from $48 billion to $78 billion in 5 years from 2015 to 2020. QSR segment alone is projected to be of 16,785 crores INR. Presently, there are few international players like Dominos, McDonalds, Yum Restaurant that own small pie of this QSR business. Most of the business is un-organized and is dominated by local vendors. We want to create a QSR brand that supplies traditional Indian food with best-in-quality and taste!

How Yum Kithcen Operates?
As a food business person, I wanted the brand to have full control on food that is prepared, supply chain and logistics to give wow factor for the customer. Hence, we prepare the food, do an optimal supply chain decreasing the food wastage and by using a proprietary model of delivery, we are able to satisfy the customer on all fronts. Supply-chain and
What is the present status?

Presently, we have 1 main kitchen in HSR layout that caters to most of the night-out localities like HSR, Kormangala, Indira Nagar, Bellandur, BTM 1st and 2nd Stage, Bommanhalli, Lakkasandra, Sarjapur (main road). We have a franchise at electronic city too! We want to open 3 more kitchens to cover complete Bangalore (North, South, East, West and Central).

Are you planning to raise funding and how much?
We want to expand as soon as possible in this segment with-in Bangalore and to other metros like Mumabi, Pune, Delhi-NCR, Chennai, Hyderabad etc. and also want to start new entities like Digital Kiosks, Food trucks etc. We want to raise a minimum of 1 crore rupees. We have talked to couple of HNIs and Angel investors. One of them is keen on our model and it is in advance discussions. We will update you on this.

What will you do with funding?


First and foremost, we want to build brand for Yum Kitchen. Secondly, we want to strengthen our logistics and create intuitive website and app. We will open 3 more kitchens to cover whole Bangalore. Also, we will do selected marketing (primarily digital marketing).

It was a real fun at the Mother Dairy Plant

We were invited by the Mother Dairy plant to see their way of working. We accepted the invitation and our team of almost 50 persons visited Mother Dairy plant at Delhi. It was a real fun. First of all they took us to the meeting room and explained us in depth about their products. We were also shown a documentary made by them. After that we were taken inside the plant to view the real working. They also exhibited us various tests to be performed for checking the purity of the product. After that we were offered Flavoured milk and Ice cream cones in different variants. It was a real fun and our entire team enjoyed the visit. The kids were more interested in the Flavoured milk & Ice cream though the elders learnt a lot about their products & the composition.

Radiating Mobile Towers of Delhi !

Sometime ago we did a random check of the mobile towers in our area with two 'NARDA' machines for a day, along with two teams, to work on that. We started moving our car randomly, to find the towers with maximum carriers and the two teams followed us. We checked various towers but the outcome was nil, as all the towers ranked within the range, may be due to the fixing of outcome. The video recording of that event is being shared below :



In continuation of our efforts, a day ago, we invited a top official team, for a random check at few locations. This time these were the officials from a top rated Govt department, doing the random checking of mobile towers in our area. Though they were not allowed to share with us their findings, we could easily understand the status of the Tower checked in front of us.  

Though i can not share the outcome figures on this public platform, but yes, it was high, the tower was emitting radiation. The peak was much above the prescribed limit. We have requested the team to visit us again with more sophisticated equipment for random checking at various locations. Hopefully, they will revert to us in a day or two. We will share the findings with you very soon.

With best regards,

It has a dedicated game control center and game play recording.  

It has a dual Pixel 12 MP Camera, with so many shortcuts, that will get you everywhere. 

The brighter F1.7 lens and larger 1.4µm pixels on the image sensor capture so much more light that your photos come out sharp and detailed.

The professional-grade Dual Pixel Sensor can focus as quickly and as accurately as you would with your own eyes with a revolutionary focus.

Running on powerful processors, Galaxy S7 and S7 edge run smooth and fast, handling every bit of the additional data on your microSD card with confidence. 

The new custom CPU, powerful GPU and 4GB RAM make for a potent combination. From launching apps to playing games and streaming video, everything happens faster and smoothly.

Both Galaxy S7 and S7 edge have bigger batteries letting you watch your favorite TV shows and listen to music for hours on end. 

The custom CPU and highly advanced GPU ensure the batteries are used to their full potential.
