There are many options, including a couple of beers in the fridge. Pick a few spirits of your choice, including a dark and light one. I always keep some natural cocktail mixes which are available at supermarkets as well as restaurants these days. These go well with gin and vodka. Keeping some dry snacks like popcorn is always a good option. Make sure you have some hard cheeses, aged ones. These come in handy whether it’s a date or a gathering.

Prateek’s signature restaurant, Masque, is changing India’s culinary landscape and was awarded the One To Watch Award by Asia’s 50 Best in 2020
