Actress Lin Laishram has unveiled her reasons for starting the Manipuri cloud kitchen Akhoi, aiming to bring traditional dishes to a wider audience.
Actress Lin Laishram has revealed her motivation behind the launch of Akhoi, a new cloud kitchen that serves authentic Manipuri cuisine. In a recent interview, she explained that the venture is a step toward promoting the region’s culinary heritage.
Akhoi operates on a delivery‑only model, allowing customers to order from a variety of traditional dishes without the need for a physical dining space. The concept has gained popularity across India, especially among urban consumers who seek diverse and convenient food options.
By focusing on Manipuri flavors, Akhoi aims to introduce lesser‑known dishes such as Eromba and Singju to a broader market. The cloud kitchen also plans to collaborate with local farmers to source fresh ingredients.
Industry observers note that the move reflects a growing trend of regional chefs and personalities leveraging digital platforms to reach national audiences. Akhoi’s launch is expected to boost interest in Manipuri cuisine and create new opportunities for local food producers.
