Our Mission
To make every guest — the trucker at 2 AM and the family of eight hundred at a wedding — feel like the kitchen was cooking for them personally. And to do it at a price that doesn't require them to think twice about coming back.

Our Story
It began with a rule,
not a business plan.
In 1998, Bhanwar Singh Rathore borrowed forty thousand rupees, bought a generator and a clay oven, and put sixteen charpais under a tin roof on the Ajmer highway. He had no hospitality training and no intention of building a company. He had one rule, which he repeated to every person he hired: nobody leaves hungry, and nobody gets served food we would not eat ourselves.
Twenty-eight years later that sentence has produced a fine-dining room, a nine-hundred-seat banquet hall and seven acres of event lawn. It has also produced a staff turnover rate we are quietly proud of, a head chef of nineteen years, and about fourteen lakh meals.
The dhaba is still open seventeen hours a day. The dal still takes eight hours. And the founder still walks into the kitchen at six in the morning to taste it — which, according to his daughter, is now the only part of the job he refuses to delegate.
