About the dish

What you are eating

Set here overnight and churned by hand rather than blended, which is what keeps it thick without being heavy. Sweet comes with rose and a spoon of malai on top; salted comes with roasted cumin and black salt; mango is blended with ripe mango pulp. Served in a steel tumbler, cold enough to hurt.

Where it’s from

Outside the cities, Punjab's cooking starts in the fields. Wheat, mustard and milk come straight from the khet to the kitchen, and the day's lassi is churned there too.

Before you order

Our dishes are a little spicy and spice levels cannot be customised — we cook them the way they are cooked at home. Our kitchen handles dairy, wheat, gram flour, peanuts and tree nuts. We do not offer vegan or gluten-free dishes, so guests with allergies dine at their own discretion — we are unable to take responsibility for allergic reactions. Everything is cooked in desi ghee or sunflower oil depending on the recipe.
