Pardesi Restaurant

We are located on New Pali Road in Jodhpur, right near the Police Chowki. It’s a busy spot with lots of vehicles going back and forth all day. Pardesi Restaurant has been sitting here for some time now. We aren't a big chain or anything like that. Just a local place where you can get a meal without waiting too long. The chairs are old wooden ones, and the walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but they serve their purpose. We get a mix of travelers passing through and people who live nearby. Usually, the radio is playing in the background, mostly news or old songs. We don't do anything complicated. The menu is just what we've always cooked. We buy our spices from the market down the road. Sometimes the power goes out, and we have to use candles or torches for a bit until it comes back. It's part of life here. The kitchen staff stays busy with the tandoor. It gets hot, especially in the Jodhpur summer heat. We just keep the water jugs filled and the plates moving. People come in, eat their fill, and head back out to the road. It’s a straightforward business. We don’t have much to say about ourselves other than we show up every morning and open the shutters. That's just how it goes for us at this corner. There’s no big philosophy behind it. We just provide food and hope the fans stay on during lunch time and nobody complains about the noise from the police chowki.
