Padharo

The Padharo film: flames and the kitchen, the food photographs, the winter, Diwali, Christmas and kids menus, the drinks list, the website, social posts and an email, ending on Kombu

Padharo is a vegetarian Indian restaurant on East Street in Southampton. I built its website, took its photographs, shot the film on its home page and designed its menus, and I look after its social feeds and emails. It all comes from one person, so the menu on the table and the post on Instagram look like the same restaurant.

Website

I designed and built padharo.co.uk from scratch. Every dish on the menu page can be filtered by diet and allergen, Diwali and Christmas get their own pages each year, tables book through OpenTable and gift vouchers sell through Toast.

Seasonal menus go up and come down on their own dates, so the site never shows last month's specials.

Photography

I've photographed Padharo since 2023: new dishes whenever the menu changes, the dining room, the kitchen and the people who eat there. They're the photographs on the website. The film on Padharo's home page is mine too, and its shots open the film at the top of this page.

Social and email

I run Padharo's Instagram and Facebook: festivals, match days, offers and anniversaries. I also design and send the emails, from the newsletter to the birthday emails that bring people back for a free dessert.

I recommend Ryan to anyone looking for someone who will understand their business, care about the details and put genuine thought into their website and marketing.
