The 40/40 List: RASA

QSR magazine

The 40/40 List launched in 2017 as a way to identify the quick serves and fast casuals that have the best shot at becoming the next big thing—the rising stars of the restaurant industry. Starting over each year with a new set of 40 brands, we've highlighted 200 concepts that we think have got what it takes to become the next Chipotle or Shake Shack.

For our fifth edition of the 40/40 List, we'll be sharing interviews all month on the Fast Forward feed with founders and leaders at several of this year's 40/40 brands. First up is Sahil Rahman, cofounder with his childhood friend Rahul Vinod of RASA, an Indian fast casual based in Washington, D.C. Rahman shares the story of how RASA came to be, how Indian flavors can go mainstream in the U.S., and how the brand managed to open its second location in the midst of the pandemic.

This episode is brought to you by Perdue Foodservice.
