Our story in the oil capital of Canada began in early 2015 when a small group of ethnic food lovers from diverse professional backgrounds met in an apartment for a community gathering. While relishing our food and socializing, a thought of cooking and serving authentic South Indian style food to the community with a platter of mother’s recipes sprouted in the minds of two families. The passion for cooking and serving food simply based on what we believe people like to eat made us venture into small community catering in the beginning.

The Taste Blends was formed as a family-owned Partnership business in October 2018. Our business was incorporated as The Taste Blends Ltd. in September 2020.

For the past 2.5 years, the restaurant has been serving a variety of traditional South Indian cuisine with authentic taste and flavors to diverse food-loving communities and audiences in Edmonton.

People have a growing trend to try out South Indian foods like Dosas, Pothichor, Kizhi biriyani, etc. This has led to a growth in our sales for the past 2 years by nearly 50% since Taste Blends is the only restaurant in Alberta that serves these kinds of foods in its authentic taste, aroma, and form. Our curried pickle recipes are one of a kind as we manufacture them in-house without adding artificial preservatives.

The success of our business entrusts to 3S principles: sustain quality, service with a smile, and serve with gratitude! Our family values reflect through our great customer service by treating all in the way in which each of us would like to be treated.

Our management team consists of people who each bring unique skills and experiences to the business. There are 4 directors for this business and each handles individual as well as collective responsibilities. A strong passion for serving authentic quality food to the customers with hospitality binds them together and motivates them to move the business forward.
