Table For Four: Delhi's Dining Legacy

Table for Four: Delhi’s Dining Legacy is a first-of-its-kind anthology that captures over 16 years of Delhi’s evolving food culture, chronicled through the eyes and palates of four distinguished friends – Mr. Deepak Nirula, Mr. Nitan Kapoor, Mr. Ajay Shriram and Mr. Sunil Kant Munjal connected by the Doon School Old Boys’ Society. What began as a series of monthly lunches among close friends eventually transformed into a heartfelt culinary archive. These meals also became a space for connection and comfort.
