Food at a Bengali Griha Prabesh
Griha prabesh is the ceremony for moving into a new home. In many Bengali families it is held on an auspicious date from the panjika, often together with a Satyanarayan or Ganesh puja, and milk is boiled in the new kitchen until it overflows as a sign of plenty.
Because of the puja, many families keep the meal on the day niramish (vegetarian). Others invite friends for a non-vegetarian feast in the evening or on the following day. We cater either, or both, and plan the menu around your family's customs.
