Nandhs,
now don''t wonder if I am applying for the post!No!
I just want to tell you that you are asking for the most difficult 'commodity' - samayal mami!!
The 'going' rate for lady cooks for functions for about 6 hrs in a day & that too with an assistant for 'running errands' is Rs 550!!
So nobody wants to take up a job on daily basis. Home caterers are the only choice left! Not an easy choice at all!
Love,
chithra.

Nandhu...

Chitra madam's words are true... !!

Another option is : If they are getting "Mambalam Times" or "Tnagar talk" then ask them to give a glance (thorough)... I remember seeing many advts. in those papers for such offers.

You may get a good "reliable" person.... okva...

Nands,

I agree with CV. Caterers are the only bet. My periamma at kodambakkam used a catering service for sometime. But said it was so bad. As deeps says, there are some in nanganallur that I know of. West Mambalam will have some people too. Good luck!

Hi Nandu,

I very much agree with chitra ma'm, and others..I also wanted to take a small break from cooking, and wanted to try catering.I stumbled upon 'Suswad', from whom I had availed of the services long time back.

The food is good, and authentic 'Iyerathu Samiyal'.The only adverse aspect is that they have a fixed menu for each day of the week, and Tuesday is a holiday.Apart from that , prominent festival days are also holidays, when you have to fend for yourselves.If you want I can PM thei phone number.BTW I live in T.Nagar too.
