A few weeks ago, my mom got an email asking her to cater a wedding for a hundred guests. Three days of events. Hundreds of plates. No room for mistakes.

Most people would panic. But not my mom.

She starts every big order the same way, with her masala mix. No shortcuts. No pre-made bases. She grinds everything fresh, tastes everything twice, and makes every curry to order. Dal makhani, butter paneer, pulao, chapatis, all done the way she’s been doing it for years.

By the time the wedding weekend arrived, our kitchen looked like a command center.
Friday was the kickoff dinner.
Saturday was haldi, and she made pav bhaji that had the whole house smelling like Mumbai street food.
Sunday was breakfast, snacks, and the final lunch.

We got to the gorgeous venue early to unload everything. Chafing dishes, trays of food, stacks of chapatis still warm. The location was beautiful. And I realized:

This is why people trust our restaurant with their biggest moments.

And seeing a hundred guests line up for something she made that morning… that makes every bit of chaos worth it.

My mom was totally against us having Iced Chai on the menu. In India, chai is always served piping hot, and if the chai is cold, you toss it. It is just not culturally a thing to drink iced chai. But knowing how popular it is in America, I told my mom we had to try it.

So 3 days before we opened the restaurant, she agreed, but she said, ‘I want to decide how we do it.’ No concentrate, no mixes, none of that.

We make it authentically the Indian way, in house. We boil the tea leaves, water, milk, and homemade chai masala using my mom’s secret recipe. Don’t tell her I told you. Then we cool the whole thing down, so the chai is not a concentrate, it is actual Indian chai.

Come to 7 Monks Cafe and try the iced chai made the way my mom was willing to stand behind.

If you have never tried Malai Kofta, this is your sign. 🤍
Soft, melt in your mouth potato and paneer dumplings, swimming in the most velvety, creamy tomato sauce you have ever tasted. It is rich. It is comforting. It is everything.
This is the dish that turns first timers into regulars. Come find out why.

From 7 Monk’s to Everest Base Camp at 17,600 Feet!

Before setting off on her trek to Everest Base Camp, one of our customers mentioned that Dal-Bhaat would be the only food provided on the trek. We suggested taking some spicy garlic peanut dry chutney, that we specially prepared for her trek, to add some flavor to the bland Dal-Bhaat combo.

A few days after her return she shared with us a pic and clip of our chutney packet at the Everest Base Camp with the comment “Thank you for making me these ‘spicy’! I shared with everyone so everyone was very grateful”

We felt so happy to know that a small batch product from 7 Monk’s added a little extra flavor to the trek!

Thank you our friend for taking a little piece of 7 Monk’s on such an incredible journey! We are grateful to you!

It is crispy, spiced perfectly, and dangerously addictive. If you are intimidated by Indian food, this is the ultimate gateway snack. Dip it in our chutney and thank us later.

f you have never tried biryani before, this is the one to start with 🤤🍚
Biryani is a fragrant rice dish layered with bold spices, tender bites, and that slow cooked flavor you can smell before you even take the first bite 😮‍💨✨

Every scoop has fluffy rice, deep seasoning, and that perfect mix of savory and comforting. We love serving it with a side of raita, a cool creamy sauce that balances the spice and makes each bite even better 🥄❄️

If you want a lunch that feels like a full experience, not just a quick meal, biryani always hits 😍 Come grab it in downtown New Braunfels and make your lunch break something you actually look forward to

Reasons you should not come to my Indian restaurant:

My mom will treat you like family
2. You will fall in love with Indian food and start coming every week
3. You will compare every other Indian restaurant to ours and be disappointed
4. My mom will remember your order better than you do
5. You will feel personally offended when we are closed
6. You will realize Indian food is not scary at all and wonder why you waited so long
7. You might get fed something not even on the menu and end up loving it

So honestly... come at your own risk ❤
