How Kicibo works

A neighbourhood marketplace for independent home chefs. Chefs manage cooking. Kicibo manages the platform.

For customers

Order homemade food nearby

Meal batches, ready stock, and made-to-order specialties — from independent home kitchens.

01
Discover home chefs nearby
See kitchens in your neighbourhood with locality and distance — not a full home address while browsing.
02
See what’s cooking and what’s being made
Browse meal batches, ready stock already prepared, and made-to-order specialties with a clear ready-by day.
03
Choose a meal or homemade item
Pick from one kitchen. Clear pricing and availability keep the order simple.
04
Place your order
For meals, you’re taking a seat in a limited cook batch. Ready stock and made-to-order follow the kitchen’s stock and lead time.
05
Pickup or local delivery
Choose how you’ll receive your order based on what that kitchen offers.
06
Receive your order
Pay the home chef directly with Cash or UPI. Kicibo does not hold your money.
07
Review the experience
After delivery, you can leave a review to help neighbours choose.

Three simple ways home chefs share food on Kicibo.

Meals cooked in limited batches for a specific day. Customers take a seat; the home chef cooks for the confirmed count.

Items prepared after you order and ready in a specified number of days — cakes, sweets, and other homemade specialties.

Items already prepared and available from the kitchen — like pickles, sweets, or bakery — with stock you can refill anytime.
