Remember that feeling of pure joy when you had a taste of your first Empire butter chicken? For Bangaloreans, that’s a taste that’s been passed down for generations. But keeping a restaurant relevant for over 50 years isn’t just about a legendary recipe (though ours is definitely that too!). It’s about constantly evolving, embracing change, and staying ahead of the curve.
In the early days, convenience wasn’t the name of the game. But as the world shifted, we recognized the rise of online ordering platforms. Present in multiple locations across Bangalore city, we readily adopted them, understanding that ease of access is key. This strong online and offline presence extended our reach, ensuring our delicious food reached a wider audience.
Innovation in the Kitchen
Innovation wasn’t just for our customers; it transformed our kitchens too. We changed this by not only introducing centralized kitchen but constantly identifying ways even within that to evolve.
We also utilise a recipe management software to further enhance and ensure consistency each time, while also accounting for seasonal variations.
A Blend of Tradition and Technology
As we grew, we use a blend of time-tested culinary techniques alongside modern appliances and even intelligent technologies. This allows us to maintain the authenticity of our services while ensuring efficiency and quality at scale. Importantly, the human touch never goes away. Our master chefs remain at the heart of the operation, reflecting the rich heritage of NKP Empire.
Catering to Evolving Tastes
Tradition is important, but so is keeping things exciting. We constantly innovate, offering a variety of culinary experiences.
For us, innovation is deeply ingrained. This is true for not just my family members but also my extended family including our team, partners and customers. The trust and ownership that each one brings forward has allowed us to look for new ideas and implement them at ease, time and again.
Throughout this journey of adaptation, NKP Empire has remained true to its core values: People over Profit, Trust, Resilience and Customer First
