Ranchhodrai Bhojnalay

We are located at A-01 on Station Road in Dhola Gam. It’s a small place near the Ramji Mandir, so most people in Dhola know exactly where we are without needing a map. Being near the temple and the station means there’s always a bit of movement around here throughout the day. This is a humble bhojnalay, so don't expect anything fancy when you walk in the door. We just serve simple, everyday food to the people who live in the village or those passing through on the train. The kitchen is small, and we spend most of our morning chopping vegetables and getting the fire ready for cooking. It’s a family-run kind of thing, and we don't have a lot of help to go around. Some days the floor gets a bit dusty from the road outside, but we try to keep it clean as much as we can. We aren't here to make a huge profit or anything; we just like feeding people and keeping the business going. The menu doesn't change much, we stick to what we know how to make best. It gets pretty hot during the Bhavnagar summers, and the fans don't always do much to cool us down, but people still come by. We’ve been here for years, and the building shows its age a little bit, but it’s home to us. It’s a quiet life for the most part, except when the trains arrive.
