A table set by the whole neighborhood
Dastarkhan is the word for a table laid out for guests. Ours is set by independent home cooks across Austin — bakers, dumpling makers, noodle pullers — each cooking their own version of the dishes on one shared menu.
Why we bake the way we do
You order from one menu. Behind it is a roster of real home cooks — every dish is claimed by whoever is available and cooks it best, made fresh for your pickup or delivery window.
Every cook sets their own version: their price, their notes, their photo. Order from a chef's own page and that exact cook makes your food — at the price their page shows.
We confirm every order personally before any money changes hands. You'll always know who's cooking, when it's ready, and what it costs.
What you can count on
Made to order
Nothing sits in a case. Every order is cooked for your window, by a named cook.
One menu, real people
Each dish on the menu has a person behind it — see who cooks what on the chefs page.
Confirmed by a human
We call or message to confirm timing and details before anything is final.
Catering first
Office mornings, dessert tables, family gatherings — one order, several kitchens if needed.
How a cake reaches you

Cakes, desserts, pastries, home meals and catering — all in one place, priced upfront.
A cook claims it
