Description

Scratch Cook Social is all about creating unique and memorable experiences with food cooked from scratch, mainly with Indian inspired dishes carefully crafted to excite the senses.

Cooking from scratch is at the heart of everything we do and with nature providing such a bounty of goodness, it is by marrying the produce with traditional cooking techniques that we aim to elevate our recipes to excite and delight all your senses.

Our senses are the tools we use to perceive the world around us and when excited in a positive way, they trigger those euphoric feelings of joy, love and appreciation.

We believe these euphoric feels can be further heightened when breaking bread with others and that social and physical interaction are necessary mechanisms to achieve this.

Whether it is with family, friends, work colleagues or complete strangers, Scratch Cook Social aims to bring people together around food.

Having grown up as a 2nd generation Indian immigrant in London, founder Rajesh 'Raj' Darji was exposed to a wonderful concoction of cultures, aromas and flavours which sometimes presented contradictions and often proved complimentary to the homely traditions of his parents. Later in life and mainly through his long corporate career, Raj was able to travel to, and live in different parts of the world. All of these experiences have informed the types of ingredients he likes to cook with and the styles in which they are prepared.

Raj developed his business and entrepreneurial acumen during his 22 career at Bosch, where he led global teams delivering innovative technologies in the automotive space.

In 2023, Raj took some time out to re-assess his goals in balance with his Ikigai which led him to experiment with one of his truest passions - Food. This became the catalyst in the formation of Scratch Cook Social

Scratch Cook provided our event with an excellent service. Their food was very tasty - whether meat or or meat free, a good quantity, beautifully presented and very reasonably priced. Raj and Alfie were well organised and accommodating and very friendly. Were I to need to organise food for another event I would definitely look to Scratch Cook.

Raj curates and provides the food for the retreats I run regularly. The food is phenomenal, the feedback from anyone who attends is always that they were blown away by the food, so tasty and nutritious. I would absolutely recommend Raj and Scratch Cook Social as the thought, preparation and execution that goes into every dish is at the highest standard - it’s a pleasure to work with you Raj and we’re planning many more events to work on together!

Raj and his team were tremendous, they catered for my Birthday Party, the food was just perfect and I had so many comments on how tasty it all was, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any catering requirements

We were recommended Raj at Scratch Cook Social through our wedding planner and delighted with the result. On a discovery Zoom call he outlined a variety of different options and quotes. He is super passionate about his food and ensuring he can create the best experience possible for his clients. He was a joy to work with and everything on the wedding day went perfectly. He was prompt, organised and the food was delicious. What more could you ask for? Thanks again Raj for catering on our special day!
