Our Roots in Punjabi Dhaba Tradition

Our Roots in Punjabi Dhaba Tradition

In North India, a Dhabewala is the heart and soul of the roadside dhaba—the person who cooks, serves, and welcomes travelers with meals that taste like home. Tarun and Simmi Narula grew up with that tradition, and together with their team, they’ve brought the spirit of the Punjabi dhaba to Stamford, Connecticut.
