We had the pleasure of hosting Jack Dorsey, co-founder and CEO of Twitter. He spent an afternoon over lunch at Dera Mandawa in a discussion with Th. Durga Singh ji Mandawa about the essence of all things indian in a wide ranging discussion on Yoga, history, sustainability, Rajasthani culture and it’s values among others. Capping the afternoon with an impromptu kite flying session.

What a joy to host Chef Gary Mehigan at Dera Mandawa! In this reel, he shares his lovely experience of bringing guests over for our traditional Rajasthani cooking class. From “Chana”-cooked meals to warm conversations — it was all heart and flavour. Thank you, Chef, for the kind words and for celebrating our home-style hospitality!
An afternoon well spent at Dera Mandawa, where stories, spices, and smiles come together.✨ We had the privilege of hosting British Actor, Mark Strong and his family for an immersive Rajasthani cooking experience. Set amidst the tranquility of our courtyard, it was a delightful exchange of flavors and traditions—kneading, stirring, and savoring, all while sharing stories over warm conversations. Cooking is more than just recipes; it’s about connections. And in our kitchen, every meal tells a story. Atithi Devo Bhava – we are always grateful for the guests who choose to be a part of our home, even if just for a meal.
