Introduction
Xero Degrees. The name has a certain ring to it. Before we go on and talk about the food phenomena that Xero Degrees has gone on to become in the Delhi NCR region in such a short span, here is some food for thought.
It is a fundamental fact that we all toil for the daily bread. But as the times have changed, our taste buds crave something else. Something more than the mere factor of sustenance. A new ‘taste.’
Globalization has created a cultural amalgamation, which also led to access to cuisines across the globe. This development has led to food franchises as a remunerative recourse for those who seek to venture into the business arena with the love of food. Millennials today demand more and are technologically aware. They explore the ‘new’ and ‘innovate’ while continually trying to find new places scrolling on their Instagram. Lifestyles have evolved and so have our food habits. Multi-tasking and a fast-paced life have given rise to the fast-food culture of the popular culture where one can hang out with friends and relish on smoothies and pancakes. In popular culture, the main courses are replaced with unconventional cuisines, which reflect the change is preferences.
Although India is known for its lip-smacking cuisine, the spices, and the herbs, which leave you with a tantalizing taste, American cuisine has carved out a niche for itself. There is a stark difference between the American kitchen and its Indian counterpart, but yet the masses have a strong liking for the same. Grasping and understanding this scenario and bringing a concept to reality was the hard work of Mr. Kashish Aneja. He and his friend Mr. Shivam Kakkar decided to open a café which vouched to satiate the cheeseoholics. Xero Degrees Café is the brainchild of these two industry experts with love for food and passion for delivering happiness to everyone who walks in their café.
Now, opening a café is not easy, as there are so many out there. It has been a long battle, with every brand competing for their place while jostling with the rivals for years to uphold that position of superiority. To garner trust is the key and is not that easy to create a customer base for your café. It is exceedingly essential to stand out. Keeping these factors in mind, they decided to explore the much preferred and likable American cuisine with a dash of extra cheese for the cheese lovers. This would help them stand out with what they serve, and the rest was truckloads of creativity. Humans are so judgmental that they say they don’t judge but eventually judge everything. In the era of social media, with a constant hunger for likes, we live in a world of virtual appreciation which is a major driving force. This scenario demands the ‘extraordinary’ in terms of the menu, food presentation, prices, and, most importantly, ambiance.
