How it works
From a kitchen on your street.
Not a warehouse across town.
Home food is cooked after you order — and we’re honest about that. Every item shows its own prep time, so you know exactly when it lands.

Browse what real homes around you are actually cooking today — everyday meals or a chef’s special.
0.6 km awayThey start cooking after you order
Nothing sits under a heat lamp. Every item carries its own prep time, so you see the made-fresh window before you pay.
Ready by 1:15 PMIt arrives hot, because they’re close
A neighbour’s kitchen means a short delivery leg — fresher food, faster, and cheaper to get to you.
Fresh, never reheatedOur trust moat
Every one of our 200+ kitchens got in this way.
Trust is the whole barrier in home food, so we put a human in the loop — not a checkbox. If it isn't a genuine home kitchen, it doesn't get in.
- 1The cook appliesThrough the same app everyone else orders from — there is no separate cook app.
- 2Aadhaar KYC + FSSAIIdentity verified through Digilocker with OCR-based checks. We assist with FSSAI licensing rather than leaving them to it.
- A video call into the actual kitchenWe look with our own eyes. Not a cloud kitchen, not a restaurant set up in a rented room — a real home kitchen, or it does not get in.
- 4Training videos, then an oral examEvery cook watches the full training set, then answers our questions on a call about serving customers and running their kitchen. Not everyone passes.
- 5Manual admin approvalA person signs off before the kitchen becomes visible to anyone. The verified badge gates visibility everywhere in the app.
Four ways to eat
One verified kitchen network.
Every kind of home-food craving.
Most food apps sell you one thing. The same 200+ verified kitchens serve four completely different needs.
Ask for anything a home can make.
Your grandmother's regional dish. A function for forty. A dietary need nobody caters to. Your request goes out to every eligible kitchen nearby — they send you quotes, you compare and pick.
“Andhra-style gongura mutton for 20 people, Saturday 7pm”
Home food every day, on autopilot
Subscribe once. Your meal arrives daily from the kitchens you chose — no deciding, no re-ordering.
Paid upfront into escrow, drawn down one day at a time.
How subscriptions workFestival food, from people celebrating
Not a factory line. Genuine festive cooking from homes actually observing the festival.
A new storefront every festival — no app update needed.
And of course — everyday à-la-carte. Order one meal, right now, from a kitchen down the road.
That's Shisca for eating.
Here's Shisca for cooking.
Same app. There's no separate cook app — the Cook Hub lives inside the one you already have.
Most of our kitchens are run by women earning from their own homes, on their own terms.
Three ways to earn
One app. Three income layers.
Shisca isn't a restaurant platform. It's built around how people already cook — and turns every kitchen into a small, sustainable business.
Everyday Meals
You're already cooking. Now earn from it.
- List what you plan to cook today
- Cook a little extra when orders come in
- No menu planning, no overhead — daily income
Chef Specials
Your skill deserves higher income.
- Showcase your signature dishes
- Prepared fresh on demand
- Premium pricing, brand building, recognition
Office Sharing
Food builds connections and income together.
- Share meals across your office team
- Sources: your home, your spouse, nearby cooks
- Built-in trust circle, daily repeat usage
Why our cooks actually earn
We turn cooks away. That's how the ones we accept earn.
Most platforms leave sign-up wide open, then let cooks find out the hard way that there's no demand for them. We check the area first.
If a neighbourhood is already well served, we say so honestly instead of onboarding a kitchen that won't get orders.
