Kamalambal Catering Services was started as a small 'at-home' catering service in the year 1998. Mr.Krishnamoorthy, a former hotelier, who moved to Chennai in the late nighties was bored. His sons were independent, and working in reputed firms, and he was pretty bored to the hilt. 55 years of manning a hotel, and then you retire, life comes to a standstill, doesn't it? He just wanted to keep himself occupied, and to play away with all the restlessness, he started a small cafe at home.
