Ours is a simple story of friends that had left India.The story began unfolding when the same friends began meeting often, and talking agitatedly and animatedly, of how much they missed eating a homely plate of Rajma Chawal. In their attempt to remember the gullys and nukkads of India, they began fantasizing about bhajiyas and vada pavs, that could have complemented theirsteaming cups of Chai.When one friend reminisced fondly of the garlicky goodness of the roadside Chau-Mean & Chilli Chicken, they were all taken back on the topsy-turvy path of nostalgia, where the clouds lay low and the sun peaked through mountain tops. By the time, the friends finished their chutney sandwiches, they had already decided that a thick, foamy Gulkand Shake would have ended their night on a very rosy note.On that night, The Bhukkad Cafe was born. The Bhukkad Cafe is all about Food - Because, there's nothing that even comes close - Because, we love to eat a bit of everything, the sweet, the tangy and the savoury, and oh, don't even get to the fried.Because, a Certified Bhukkad is always looking to satisfy the hunger of his soul. The Bhukkad Cafe is all Desi - Because every Pind in our Des holds its unique cuisine and its rangeen streets that scream flavour.The Bhukkad Cafe is all about Nostalgia - Because food memories make the best stories, and years later, we still remember our college canteen and that one filter coffee that we had hurriedly sipped while studying for that board exam. Our story is a simple one - made extraordinary because of a passion comparable to that of pani-puri, because of love that is laced with makkhan pavs & most importantly, because of a grit as crisp as a freshly fried samosa.It is extraordinary, because, now, YOU are a part of it.
