bpb for CNNGo: Dial-a-Dabba
Wednesday, 04 May 2011 21:36

Mumbai’s new-age meal delivery services think inside the box. Vegan, vegetarian, global and calorie-counting -- these new-age lunch delivery services in Mumbai make the grade. Read the full story on CNNGo.com here.

Until a few years ago, the dabba or the Indian lunch box (transported from residences to offices) was made of steel, stacked three, sometimes five, storeys high and contained a traditional Indian meal of rotis, pulses, vegetables and rice.

Since then, the urban office meal has come a long way. It’s been flattened into ready-to-microwave trays, folded into cardboard boxes and calorie-counted into individual diet dishes.
