'Who else but the Punjabis?' - by K J S Chatrath

Who else can think of organising a thali meal with 30 dishes and weighing 25 kg- Only Us Punjabis!

There is a new restaurant which believes in the Punjabi liking for stuffing guests with 'Hore Ji' (Take some more Sir Ji/Madam Ji) till they start shouting  'Bus Ji'- No More!

No, I have not yet visited this restaurant and what I am saying is only hearsay. It is a restaurant called Mellow Garden and is located in Rajouri Garden in  Delhi.


One must clarify that it is not a round thali. It is a hexagonal one that reportedly  weighs 25 kgs comprises starters, main course, assorted rotis, lassi, buttermilk and desserts.  This all-in-one package is available in four versions; Satrangi Punjabi Veg, Satrangi Punjabi Non-veg, Chinjabi Veg and Chinjabi Non-veg. From kurkure dahi kebabs, tandoori chilli chicken, Amritsari aloo and Punjabi kadhai kumbh to pind wala shahi paneer, gobhi matar adraki and kesari pheerni.


The thali serves upto 4 people and  provides unlimited helpings. (Please do check this up before ordering)

Oye Balle Balle Ji!
