Our History
Nawab of Bainganpur
The Nawab of Bainganpur and his beautiful blonde wife, Princess Susan were frightfully finicky about, their food. Chefs lived in terror but not Zauq Chatniwala. With a passion for herbs and spices, the Nawab had appointed him as Chef-e-Khas thanks to his tasty, tangy and spicy recipes
The rivalry of John Karela
This won Chatniwala the rivalry of John Karela, the ousted Chief Chef. One day he sabotaged Chatniwala’s dinner preparations by tossing boiled rice in the Mutton Curry, throwing marinated chicken over flames, wrapping kebabs in parathas and turning spicy mashed potatoes into sandwich filling!
Zauq Chatniwala
Zauq Chatniwalas terrified, but a bite of each made him smile and he proudly served the mat the Royal Table. Delighted with the newdishes, the Nawab rewarded Chatniwala with Chatanpur, a state of his own where he could grow acres and acres of Emly and Chilli plantations. Ever fair, he requested permission to share the rewardwith John Karela.
Princess Ki Pasand
So long as you both keep presenting a variation of this delightful food every day”, ordered the Nawab. Hence the various flavours of Biryani, Kebab Rolls, Bun Kebabs and BBQ.
Recorded in Zauq Chatniwala’s diaries and inherited by great grandsons, Emly and Chilli, these original recipes now present a flavorful menu fit for the world!
