A little about us

AVARA Socch

We mished 'n' mashed 'n' made it ours.

Our favourite food comes from street corners, family kitchens and the neighbourhood shop. We start there, then follow our appetite a little further. A familiar crunch. A house masala. Something worth passing around.

Good things take a little making.

Whole spices, a stone mortar and time at the stove. Here's what happens before a pack reaches your hands.
