Happy Monk Makes It’s Retail Debut, Brings Gourmet Dim Sums Closer To Home
India, 12th November 2025: After redefining India’s frozen food category with its chef-crafted, preservative-free dimsums, Happy Monk is now stepping beyond its online presence into premium retail within three months of its launch. The brand’s announcement of its offline expansion with Bombay Gourmet Market, will make its products available at eight handpicked stores across Mumbai, Pune, Nashik, Goa and Bangalore.
This strategic expansion builds on Happy Monk’s rapid digital growth since its launch and signals a move towards deeper accessibility to India’s growing gourmet-seeking consumers. By partnering with Bombay Gourmet Market, a destination that is synonymous with curated, high-quality food brands – Happy Monk brings its freezer-to-table gourmet experience to neighborhood shelves, driving spontaneous discovery and purchase.
Alongside steady online growth, the brand experienced repeat offline enquiries for its dimsums. This demand underscored the brand’s growing consumer awareness across cities. Recognising this momentum, Happy Monk and Bombay Gourmet Market accelerated their partnership plans, ensuring that their consumers get easy and immediate access to Happy Monk’s offerings.
Founded by seasoned marketers Varun Kapoor and Deepthi Nair, Happy Monk offers more than 20 handcrafted dim sums varieties like Edamame Truffle, Smoked Chicken & Cheddar Cheese & Sriracha Chicken. Crafted without preservatives and flash-frozen to preserve peak freshness and texture, every Happy Monk purchase ensures a high-quality restaurant experience in minutes, right at the doorsteps .
“In just two months, the response to Happy Monk has far surpassed our expectations, “ said Deepthi Nair, Co-founder, Happy Monk. “We initially set out to build the brand through direct-to-home delivery, with a goal to establish the brand and also educate consumers about the new category. However when stores started receiving direct requests for our dimsums, it was clearly a wake up call for us to hasten a solid offline presence that would immediately meet the growing demand. I strongly believe that a retail presence unlocks organic discovery, instant trial, direct engagement and an immersive experience for customers that will further help Happy Monk increase brand awareness! Consumers today are redefining convenience, they want food that feels indulgent, elevated, and effortless all at once,” said Varun Kapoor, Co-founder, Happy Monk. “Our entry into premium retail is about creating those everyday moments of discovery. It allows people to connect with the brand beyond a screen and taste the difference that comes from chef-driven recipes and uncompromising quality.”
“We’re excited to welcome Happy Monk to our retail shelves for their offline debut,” said Akshay Kumar, Founder, Bombay Gourmet Market. “Our mission has always been to curate distinctive, high-quality food brands that spark excitement among shoppers. Happy Monk’s take on frozen foods, marrying chef-crafted recipes with clean ingredients and uncompromising flavour, aligns seamlessly with our philosophy. Their presence not only elevates our offering but also brings a fresh dimension for customers seeking premium, convenient dining experiences.”
The strong early traction highlights the brand’s rapid acceptance in the market. Happy Monk is already clocking a healthy 30–40% repeat rate with many customers placing multiple repeat orders and exploring new flavors with each repeat order. By combining an omnichannel presence across direct delivery and now premium retail, Happy Monk is building a distribution network designed for greater accessibility & scale across local markets.
The offline debut not only cements Happy Monk’s position as a category creator in India’s frozen aisle but also signals the rising demand for gourmet convenience foods. This demand reflects a broader consumer shift, where restaurant- style dining at home is paired with high-quality & clean ingredients, preservative-free indulgence, authentic taste and effortless convenience.

Eureka Eklavya Festival: A Celebration of Creativity and Curiosity
Bengaluru, November 12, 2025: The campus of Eklavya School, Bengaluru, was transformed into a vibrant playground of creativity, curiosity, and connection on November 8, as the Eureka Eklavya Festival unfolded to an overwhelming response. In association with sponsors Basil, Zookeeper, Ikimono, The Baker’s Dozen and The Rameshwaram Café, the one-day festival brought together children (aged 2-10), parents, and educators for a day that redefined learning through experience, play and shared discovery.
Unlike a conventional school event, the festival felt like stepping into a living, breathing classroom -one without boundaries, where every corner invited exploration. As the day began, the campus pulsed with music, movement, and art, setting the tone for an atmosphere of collective joy. Children moved freely from one creative zone to another, exploring block printing, music, theatre, science, games, and storytelling at their own pace, while parents joined in as co-learners rather than spectators. Across the campus was an amusing blend of workshops, performances, and creative sessions that strengthened cognitive, emotional, and sensory development, allowing students to build focus, express freely, and collaborate meaningfully.
The main highlight of this one-of-a- kinda-kind fest was the interactive Prani Pet Sanctuary session supported by Basil, adding thoughtful product giveaways to make it more engaging. Children got to observe and gently interact with a range of animals like rabbits, birds, reptiles, and insects; learning firsthand about empathy and responsibility, while developing a deeper awareness of nature. Parents described it as “one of the most memorable and essentialessential experiences of early learning”, a moment where children’s fascination turned into understanding.
The Storytelling and Puppetry session, sponsored by Zookeeper, sparked imagination and emotional connection. The brand’s colourful themed merchandise giveaways added an extra layer of delight, as the children left clutching not just keepsakes, but stories they would retell at home. Meanwhile, Ikimono, which conducted the Fabric Painting Workshop, turned the art zone into a splash of colour, encouraging creativity, while also offering children clothing sets and vouchers.
The Rameshwaram Café also graciously supported the festival by providing nutritious meal boxes for parents and children – a gesture that reflects their ethos of serving with heart and adding joy to moments that matter.
From the exhilarating experience of the Drum Circle and the hands-on thrill of Passionfruit Pottery to the playful challenge of 2D to 3D drawing, the festival offered children multiple avenues to experiment, encouraging focus, strategy, and teamwork. Complementing these experiences, activities like the Tattoo Artist booth, Bubble Station, and the Nature Walk with Magnifying Glass ignited imagination, encouraged children to create and communicate, and brought the joy of learning through play. While each activity was met with enthusiastic response, the day remained a truly immersive event and once again reflected Eklavya’s living philosophy of experiential learning.
Adding to the excitement, Eklavya’s own educators also hosted experiential sessions like Fun with Science, String Games, Little Builders: Unit Blocks, and Melody Makers: Finger play with rhymes and songs. These familiar favourites helped in nurturing motor skills and problem-solving abilities, ensuring that children’s curiosity remains ever-growing.
Commenting on the festival, Siddarth Handa, Co-Founder of Eklavya Early Years and Eklavya School, Bengaluru, said, “Eureka Eklavya Festival is not just a celebration of learning; it is a reminder of why learning must be lived, not just taught. Seeing children lead their own discoveries, whether through art, science, music, play, or compassion – affirms our belief in nurturing critical thinking and problem-solving as lifelong skills. It was truly heartening to see the festival turn out to be a resounding triumph. It left a lasting impact on both children and parents, while highlighting how Eklavya continues to uphold its mission as a value-led institution. It was also inspiring to witness the joy, collaboration, and sense of community flourishing among the children throughout the day. Festivals like these continue to shape our learners into more independent, confident, empathetic, and expressive individuals, which is at the very heart of what Eklavya stands for.”
The Eureka Eklavya Festival 2025 closed on a memorable note, leaving families with transformative experiences of hands-on discovery and connection. Parents described the festival as both heartwarming and enriching, observing their children freely express themselves and lead their own learning journeys, where growth was celebrated over performance. Above all, it reaffirmed the school’s enduring commitment to creating environments where students don’t just learn about the world, but fully engage with it.
