Our Story
Hello, I’m Ronak Naik architect by profession, food lover by obsession. What started as weekend kitchen experiments with my mom Kavita soon turned into a mission: to create food that’s authentic, exciting, and never ordinary. We tested spice proportions, textures, plating, and even packaging until every bowl felt just right. My wife Sukanya, an interior designer, gave Rustom Rice its look and soul from the visual identity to the cultural balance you see in every detail. Our food is rooted in heritage but made for today for people who crave authentic flavors, wholesome nutrition, and effortless convenience.
Three Pillars of Rustom Rice
Improvised Fusion Recipes
At Rustom Rice, we don’t mask food with cheese, butter, or chutneys instead, we refine classics with precision, adjusting every cut, simmer, and spice to elevate flavor. Our signature drumstick soup, for instance, achieves deep umami without MSG, stock, or artificial additives, reflecting our belief that every dish should be crafted with intent, blending two rich cuisines through smart innovation.
Simple, Good, Nutritious Food
Each dish at Rustom Rice is wholesome, balanced, and satisfying from our one-pot rice bowls with ideal proportions of carbs, fats, and proteins made using light, parboiled 1121 basmati, to our shallow-fried Soya Keema Pattice served with a slow-cooked tomato sauce made from 40% real tomatoes, without thickeners or MSG. Even our sharbats are free from artificial colors and flavors, reflecting our simple belief: food shouldn’t be overcomplicated just made better, honestly
Convenience of Eating
Modern life is busy, and Rustom Rice is one of the few brands offering wholesome food in a QSR format. Served in tamper-proof, food-grade paper bowls, our meals are ready to eat no transfer, no mess with ingredients like soya chunks and green chillies cut for easy spoon eating. With three portion sizes to suit your appetite and quick, clean service, we prove that fast doesn’t have to mean junk, delivering both convenience and quality in every bowl
Best. Guests. Ever
"Finally, a quick meal that doesn’t feel like junk food. The rice bowl was light yet filling, and I didn’t feel sleepy afterwards. Exactly what I needed for a busy workday."
