We intend to drop the price aggressively as we scale through volume and automation, but we need to get traction before we can do that. We do have a keto-friendly variant (Classic Saag Paneer), and we'd love to make inroads into the ket

We currently expect people to provide their own carbs in the form of rice, roti, or bread, but if you email me at soham@pashi.com, we can try to get you some rotis for an additional fee.

We do have plans to use automation to scale in the long-term. If you're curious about details, shoot me an email and I'd be happy to talk further.

Great! The fat is coming from the vegetable oil used in the curry. If you have other specific questions about ingredients, feel free to email me at soham@pashi.com

Perhaps "taste absolutely terrible to me" would have been better phrasing. I think Soylent has its place, and I'm glad it exists. In terms of price, food is expensive to make (especially in the Bay Area), but as we scale we t

This was intended to represent a 'Classic' arcade game (Saag Paneer is the traditional preparation), not as a comment on physical activity. My apologies for any offense caused, and I'm happy to take suggestions for a new illu

Absolutely, these are the exact reasons I started this. We plan to expand to more dishes as we scale, but for now, if you're in the Bay Area, I hope we can at least help liberate you from the monotony of Chipotle.

Changing the proportions of the ingredients -- in the case of saag, we could mix and match paneer, tofu, seitan, and a side of a carb like rice to produce any reasonable macronutrient ratio.

My understanding is that Saag is the generic term for a leafy vegetable curry of this kind ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saag ). Mustard is Sarson, if my Hindi isn't failing me.

Each portion is 500 calories. We serve them in 16oz containers, but the volume of Saag depends on the variant ordered (to make sure they are all the same number of calories).

That is likely a ways away, but if you email me I'll make sure you're the first to find out when we get there!

Shoot me an email at soham@pashi.com, if we get enough interest in the area we might be able to make it happen!

The long-term vision for this, which we hope to fulfill once we get some traction, is an API that allows you to order food such as Saag with arbitrary nutritional values (within a certain range). We don't have the volume for that yet,

The Saag Paneer option has a lot more fat, which is why we targeted that at folks looking for a keto-friendly option, but this is indeed somewhat amusing.

Switch advisers or quit. Everyone I know who's ever done different in this situation has regretted it. 3 years of the prime of your life is worth a whole lot more than a middling recommendation letter.
