When talking about dhabas’s it takes me to my childhood memories when we used to go on long travel with my father on his official tours.
These dhaba’s always served the traditional food in their unique dhaba style way…the roadside eating feel during the late night travellings are really missed now.I still remember that these dhaba’s were located on the roadsides of the highways and we always enjoyed them…the sound of open cooking and the fresh aroma’s of the tadka’s and the tandoor’s…..so many memories…
