The Story

For Rahul Vinod and Sahil Rahman, building Rasa has been a lifelong journey. Growing up in the ‘90s, the two had to drag their friends to eat at their fathers’ Indian restaurant. With the rise of fast-casual dining, they had a revelation– they could introduce Indian food to the masses. Partnering with their fathers, the friends set out to make Rasa.
