Everything is cooked fresh each day. Rice is soaked in the morning and the meat is marinated overnight in yoghurt and a masala the family still grinds in-house. Nothing left at closing is carried over to the next day.
Nihari cooks overnight on a low flame. The tandoor is lit twice a day and every naan is made to order, so your bread arrives a few minutes after the rest of the food.
We started catering when neighbours asked for trays. Today about half of what we cook goes out in trays for mehndis, corporate lunches and Eid dinners.
