At FridayCravings, every plate carries a piece of India. What began as a small food stall in 2012 has grown into a celebration of vegetarian Indian cuisine, shaped by years of travel, tradition, and a deep love for flavor.
We bring together the culinary soul of India, from the spice-laden streets of the South to the slow-cooked comfort of North Indian kitchens. Here, food isn’t just prepared, it’s remembered, reimagined, and relieved. Our menu is a mosaic of regional dishes, all 100% vegetarian, each one crafted with care, inspired by recipes passed down through stories, not scripts. It’s food with purpose, rooted in heritage and served with heart.
Step into FridayCravings, where every meal is a memory in the making.
It all started with a spark of curiosity! A quiet love for culinary art growing alongside the structured world of engineering. But as it is said, some passions refuse to stay in the background. Meet Mayur Thakkar, the heart and soul behind FridayCravings.
His journey wasn’t just about cooking, it was about discovery, creation, and connection. What began as an exploration soon turned into an undeniable passion, one that shaped his path, defied expectations, and ultimately became his profession.
Today, FridayCravings stands as a testament to that journey, a place where flavors tell stories, traditions find new life, and every dish carries the essence of a dream that refused to fade.
What started as a humble fast-food stall on the roadside in 2012, has now grown into something that led to the birth of Mayur’s Cloud Kitchen, nestled within One Hiranandani Park, a place where flavors found a home and stories were told through every dish. It was never just about cooking, it was about creating experiences, sharing stories, and bringing people together through food. Flavors of India, Served with a Story.
FridayCravings isn’t just about food – it’s a canvas of flavors, a tapestry of traditions woven into every bite. Here, the crisp Rajasthani papad crackles like stories shared over chai, the bold Bengali mustard carries whispers of heritage, and Kashmiri saffron lingers like a distant memory. Side by side, the fiery Ghee Podi Idli of Munnar and Thekkady ignites the senses, completing a culinary mosaic where every dish is a chapter, every spice a storyteller.
Raised on the aroma of slow-cooked dals and the rhythm of spice-grinding mortars, Mayur was always drawn to flavors over formulas, cuisine over concepts, kitchens over classrooms. While his peers engineered their careers, he slowly roasted his culinary dreams.
The recipes whispered in temple kitchens, perfected in village homes, served from humble forest-side stalls and meals that carry the essence of tradition, shaped by time and love. It’s the dishes shared via traditions, over festivals, in moments of discovery—recipes passed down not through cookbooks, but through stories, through strangers turned guides.
because India has a diversity of soil and spices, a land where food is not just nourishment, but celebration, memory, and identity. What began as a distant dream has now become your destination to celebrate, a fine-dining experience rooted in tradition, thriving in the heart of Thane West, Maharashtra.
