Living alone? Eating well doesn't have to be hard.
If you are a student in Manchester missing maa ka khana, Saakshi’s Kitchen brings weekly home-cooked Indian meals to your door — along Oxford Road, in Fallowfield flats, Withington houseshares and city-centre halls. Rusholme’s curry mile is famous, but a weekly box of ghar-style dal, sabzi and curry is calmer on your wallet and your week. Choose Pure Veg from our separate vegetarian kitchen, or a mixed plan where kitchen-cooked meats are halal. Meals arrive frozen; keep them frozen, reheat from frozen until piping hot, then heat to serve. Parents overseas can place the order while you focus on lectures and labs. Skip any week you are away from Manchester. Check your postcode, then start a plan that fits student life here.
