The person behind the place

Before GRID, there was Haena.

For Haena Patel, cooking begins with the memories of a family kitchen in Italy. GRID carries that love of honest, handcrafted food to a table in Ahmedabad. Fresh pasta, good coffee, and the pleasure of sharing both.

How GRID came to be

The making of pasta.

Semola flour and water. Kneaded, rolled and shaped by hand. Follow the journey from dough to your table.
