If we got ten bucks every time we heard this question, we’d be investor-funded-rich as Zomato. We’re sailing into our fourth year of existence and have successfully kept this a raging debate in social circles across the country. But despite the gruelling rumours and slightly strange witch-hunt to unmask the Founders of the Secret Supper Club, we owe a big round of thanks and applause to all our members. Without the stickjaw-sticky loyalty and love by our screened 6,000+ member base who go out on a limb to protect the identities of the DSSC team, we doubt this social experiment would have been this robust a success. It’s because of you, we are what we are.
Running a business in a challenging business climate is a triumph; running a business anonymously in a ferociously intimate and hyper-competitive business climate is like winning the Lottery + Quidditch World Cup + seeing Donald Trump lose the election by 1 vote. But no complaints, as they say: No guts No glory. Which is the thumping mood with which we’re hitting a second city later this year.
DSSC is a tight-knit but hyper-efficient team that has managed to break all rules in most management books. We managed to create our own dictionary, our own rule book, our own way of conducting business, our concepts for others to emulate, our way of building meaningful relationships; all in a covert fashion. No day is the same, and no team member does only one thing – we’re constantly juggling different balls and donning different hats – which is what makes Team DSSC one of the most sought after teams in the country.
We’re mighty delighted to introduce the brains and hearts behind the Secret Supper Club | Part Deux:
Miss Peachy-Life
In the high waist skirt by bhane.
Meet Miss Peach-Life, the lady who hosts like no other in Delhi,
She’s a super cheery person, even more with Thai Curry in her belly.
If you’re from outta town, the best places she’ll suggest,
Take her recommendation and to go Farzi, Perch, Indian Accent & EEST.
She’s as romantic as can be and in destiny she believes,
She’ll show you the silver lining, before she leaves.
Her mornings start with scrambled eggs, which are best on toast,
To get the Friday party going, on a margarita, she relies the most.
Miss Fashionista
In the high waist skirt by bhane.
Meet Miss Fashionista, the lady who balances work & fun to a T,
Like managing her diet with fruits- in shakes or sangrias they will be.
The office is less like a workspace, all because of her chirpy face.
About Fashion she knows all, from spandex to lace
When she’s not blogging, you’ll find her contemplating life with a slice of chocolate pie.
Mexican cuisine’s her fave, when you mention ‘Arriba’, you’ll get a high-five.
A wizard with words, riddles and brain-teasers are her cup of tea.
When she stumps you, which is often, she’ll make you buy her a doner or three.
Miss Moonwalking Marketer
In the boyfriend fit denims and block shirt by bhane.
Meet Miss Moonwalking Marketer, the lady whose keen observations will leave you impressed.
With skills of weaving stories, influencing and making Soba Noodles she’s blessed.
Nothing can make her falter when she’s on a mission,
Except Fatty Bao or Sushi Haus by her own admission.
For yummy meals and fab trainers she’s on a perpetual look out
A diet without Cheesecake will be rejected without a doubt.
This brilliant dancer likes reading and watching films,
But that’s only after she has satisfied her puppy’s whims.
Mister tech-meister
In linen shorts & the standard summer shirt by bhane.
Three cheers for the Tech-meister, the kind-hearted gent who dotes on Dota 2
He’ll buy drinks for fellow techies, and build an app in a jiffy for you.
A lunch invite from him would imply a trip to Instapizza, Murthal or Indian Accent.
If you’re really special he’ll take you to Italy for lasagne and pasta al dente.
Crisp Masala Dosa, though, is a brekkie very close to his heart.
Rustling up Maggi and locating the booziest LIITs, he’s made into an art.
When he walks into office, he brings with him a glow & shine,
He’s our most valued resource when it comes to the world online.
Miss Cheeky Smoke
In the boxer top & window pants by bhane.
Meet witty Miss Cheeky Smoke, the lady who is a proper connoisseur of food,
She has many words to share from her repertoire- kind, funny, never rude.
She has a long list of faves, starting with overnight oats with peanut butter on top;
To Moti Mahal for butter chicken. Ooh, let’s head there, chop chop!
She writes poetry in her free time, when she’s not watching movies or lazing around.
Speaking of interests, in food and travel, her passion she’s found.
A philosopher at heart, she realises there is nothing that is finite.
What does wonders to her mood is a Bloody Mary in her hand at night.
We are mighty stoked to announce that we’re hitting our second city this year and would love all your continual support and love; watch this space for more updates. To be a part of this bada$$ crew, tell us why on hello@theideaslab.com.
Peace. And Food. (And far too much Tipple). You can shop our looks from DSSC fave, bhane.
