Naming and cradle ceremonies in Bangalore are afternoon family events of 50 to 300 with a satvik lunch and a sweet the family associates with the occasion. RASA caters them from the Karnataka, Tamil, Andhra, Kerala or Bengali seat depending on the family, with a tiffin or high tea for the evening. About ₹300–₹550 a plate in 2026.
The naming ceremony is a family lunch with a ritual in it, and the menu follows the community: a Karnataka leaf with a payasa, a Tamil meal with paruppu payasam, a Bengali annaprashan with payesh and a small plated meal for the baby, a Kerala choroonu. The seat is chosen for the family; the kitchen adds a tiffin or high tea for the visitors who come later in the day.

Tell the kitchen about the naming ceremonies
Date, head count, the cuisines you have in mind. Enough for the first reply to carry a menu and a number rather than a brochure.
What happens after you send the ticket
- A written reply, usually the same day. A first menu built for your occasion, the per-plate figure it comes to, and the two or three questions we need settled before the number is firm.
- A tasting. For weddings and events of size we cook the shortlist for you before you sign. Each cuisine on the menu is cooked by the chef who will cook it on the day.
- The plan for the day. Counters, service staff, timings against your muhurtham or your agenda, and the venue's rules on outside catering, checked with the venue by us.
