Hey! I’m Leah, originally from Mexico, and I’ve been calling Leuven home for almost 4 years now. I moved here for my master’s, fell in love with the city, and stuck around. After working as a financial controller, I realized it wasn’t for me, so I took a leap and started my own Mexican catering business. Now I get to share my love for tacos with fellow internationals, and I couldn't be happier!
Come find Leah in the courtyard at Expatival for some delicious food!
Mexican Tacos
Indian Cuisine
Namaste Leuven,
I am Ruchika Karki, the heart behind “The Great Delhi Factory” which brings the vibrant flavors of Indian food to the streets of Leuven, Belgium!
Being passionate about Indian Culinary, I come from an IT Background. But, I always felt a strong inclination towards the world of spices, aromas and sizzling pans. My passion for authentic Indian cuisine and the joy of sharing it with others led me to embark this exciting culinary adventure.
The journey of “The Great Delhi Factory” began 2 years ago. Through various large scale food festivals, I proudly served Indian delicacies with Indian hospitality of love & warmth to one and all.
Now, I am taking a step further to launch my very own Indian Cuisine Food Truck and Catering Services to bring freshly made, soul-satisfying Indian food closer to you. Needless to say, I am here at Expatival 2025 edition to present our vibrant flavours starting from sizzling snacks, refreshing drinks to sumptuous lunch food items. So, you all are welcome to come, taste & experience the flavours of Indian Kitchen.
See you soon, with good food and great vibes!
