All nine, in detail
Nine live counters, from 100 guests.
Every counter starts at 100 guests and needs a 6 x 6 ft footprint, a power point and three hours of setup. Premium events with live counters start from ₹1,200 per guest; as an add-on to a base menu, a counter adds ₹200 to ₹400 per guest. Chaat, pizza, churro and waffle run to strict Jain spec, with separate prep and separate utensils. The full live counter menu lists every station dish by dish.

Asked before every booking
Live counter questions.
How many live counters should I book?
100 to 250 guests: one or two. 250 to 500: two or three. 500-plus: three to five, depending on format. The right number is more about cuisine balance than headcount: one savoury station, one sweet or dessert station is the working baseline.
What's the minimum guest count for a live counter?
100 guests. Below that, the chef labour math doesn't work for either of us. We'd recommend a buffet with our regular menu instead.
What does a live counter add to the per-guest cost?
A counter adds ₹200 to ₹400 per guest to a base menu, depending on format; events with live counters start from ₹1,200 per guest. Custom quote on WhatsApp once the menu is locked.
Do you provide the equipment?
Yes. Fully equipped stations, plating, utensils, decor and the chef. You provide power (if outdoor) and a 6 x 6 ft footprint per station.
Can I mix counters across cuisines?
Yes. Most events do. Chaat plus pizza is the classic crowd combo. Tandoor plus pasta is the other regular. Kravvia suggests pairings based on guest profile.
How long does setup take?
Three hours from arrival to fully operational. We handle all logistics: equipment, uniforms, mise en place. You just need to give us a confirmed footprint and power point the week before.
Are live counters available in Jain spec?
Yes. Chaat (Jain), pizza (Jain), churro and waffle adapt cleanly. The Jain kitchen runs separate prep and utensils for live-counter mise en place: no shared boards with onion or garlic stations.
