At precisely 1 o’clock on any given Wednesday, Nimish Gupta, 49, a techie, can be found at a restaurant, joined by his longstanding lunch companions — the Koramangala Lunch Group. While their name suggests Koramangala as their meeting place, the group has shifted to an Andhra restaurant in HSR Layout due to some members’ relocation. Nimish clarifies, “Since a few members moved out, we decided that every first Wednesday of the month we’ll try a restaurant in HSR Layout.”
Nimish and Devesh Agarwal, 59, co-founded the group seven years ago. Reflecting on their initial bond, Devesh shares, “Nimish and I became friends through our shared passion for aviation. He used to regale me with tales of his culinary exploits, so I suggested we try those dishes together at least once a week.”
