KBC Take Away a destination for healthy food By Niby Ann Mohan KBC Take Away is a new revelation to the  food lovers of Thrissur district. What we  mean by Take away? Take aways are  different from restaurants where we  can order and take away the food  to home or somewhere else.  It is like a parcel food service  which is not so familiar to Thrissur. Here, three foodie friends joined  together to establish a food-based  business with a difference and  it became a history. Their aim  was not just supplying food but  providing the healthiest food.  After several studies and surveys,  KBC Take away near East Fort was  founded. What is the catch on KBC? This is an  era where people are more concerned  about their health. They are more  discreet nowadays about which kind  of food is healthy and which one is not.  In this situation, providing the healthiest  food is not an easy task. That itself make  KBC different. KBC offers the healthiest food to the  people without using ajinomoto,  artificial food colours and baking soda.  It is a known fact that chefs around the  globe utilise ajinomoto to enhance the  flavour of their cuisine at a time when  there are reports that it causes severe  health problems such as brain lesions,  headaches, vomiting, nausea, damage  to nerve cells, so on and so forth.  For most of the dishes ajinomoto  is a necessary ingredient in every hotel.  But KBC is not using it even for  preparing Chinese food, still the  taste is even delicious as a homemade  item. KBC also uses only purified  water treated according to WHO  standards as in five-star hotels  for cooking purpose. KBC has  a plant for purifying water systematically.  And they indicate that they are using  separate utensils and oils for preparing  vegetarian dishes and using fresh   branded chicken and meat for cooking. KBC targets families who want a change  from day-to-day life. Families which have  most of its members employed are the  usual customers of KBC. Fresh, hot and  healthy food within minutes attracts most  of the customers. Families who  were not comfortable in being in a  restaurant also approach KBC.  Huge rush will be seen in afternoon at KBC. Within the one year, KBC started  four counters at different parts of the city.  Many persons came forward to launch  restaurants emulating the KBC  Take-away model. KBC invites them  and they think that competition will  make a difference. KBC has a home  delivering service also. It will cover about  5km of the city. They are serving about  37 dishes like prawns fry, koonthal  fry, fish peera, fried rice, ghee rice,  different types of biriyanies, kallumakaya  fry, mushroom masala, chana masala,  crab roast, chilly gopi, gopimanjurrian,  kada fry etc. KBC also give free  offers for purchases. KBC also plans to buy vegetables  from organic gardens as a part of  providing healthy food and also  has a plan for delivering breakfast.  If it works, it will be another  milestone to the KBC Take away.
