The Cumin Bowl Launches First Wave of Dallas Locations with Franklin Junction

The fast-casual restaurant’s healthy, Indian-inspired bowls are now available for delivery

DALLAS--()--The Cumin Bowl, Chicago’s popular Indian restaurant known for its healthy and customizable Indian bowls, opens for orders from diners in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex through a partnership with Franklin Junction, the innovative restaurant e-commerce platform that provides consumers with access to some of the hottest restaurant concepts nationwide.

The Cumin Bowl’s flavorful menu offers an approachable take on traditional Indian dishes. This week and next, The Cumin Bowl will debut new outposts in Allen, Frisco, Grapevine, Irving, and Richardson through Franklin Junction’s host kitchen network. Consumers will be able to order from all major delivery platforms, including UberEats, DoorDash, Grubhub and through www.thecuminbowl.com.

Featuring build-your-own bowls, quick bites and desserts, The Cumin Bowl is a favorite among Indian food lovers and a welcoming introduction to those who are less familiar with South Asian cuisine. The menu boasts a range of options that fit your lifestyle, including vegan and plant-based alternatives like Impossible™ crumbles and riced veggies. Bowls start at $9.99, including crowd-favorites like the Chicken Tikka Masala Bowl and Paneer Butter Masala Bowl.

The Cumin Bowl’s Dallas locations bring the brand one step closer to reaching its goal of expanding into 25 cities across the U.S. by the end of 2022. The Cumin Culinary Brands, the parent company of The Cumin Bowl and Indian food meal kit brand The Cumin Club, successfully launched its first fast-casual concept in Chicago last year.

“Our goal is to make healthy Indian food more accessible to all Americans, one bowl at a time,” said The Cumin Culinary Brands co-founder Ragoth Bala. “I grew up in India and enjoyed many of the dishes that inspired The Cumin Bowl’s menu. With these flavorful, nutritious and convenient curated dishes, we hope more Americans will be inspired to add Indian food to their weekly lunch and dinner rotations.”

“We’re pleased to introduce The Cumin Bowl’s fresh take on Indian food to Dallas and add The Cumin Bowl to our roster of brands that span across a variety of cuisines,” said Rishi Nigam, CEO, and co-founder of Franklin Junction. “Our Host Kitchen network enables us to offer authentic, high-quality brands like The Cumin Bowl to people all across the country.”

In addition to The Cumin Bowl restaurants, The Cumin Culinary Brands provides five-minute Indian meal kits that customers around the U.S. can make at home, under the brand The Cumin Club. The direct-to-consumer meal kit subscription service offers curated meal plans drawn from authentic regional Indian cuisines, with meals curated by local chefs across India, freeze-dried, and delivered to customers’ doorsteps starting at $4.99 per meal.
