Big Burp

Big Burp is tucked away at 20B Hazra Road in the Kalighat area. It is a busy part of town, and we fit right into the mix of shops and houses here. No fancy entrance exists, just a door on the road that leads to some food. The name usually makes people smile, but we take the cooking part seriously. It's a small place, so it can get a bit cramped when it's full, though people don't seem to mind much. We see all sorts of folks from the Kalighat neighborhood. Some are just passing through on their way to the temple or work. Keeping the atmosphere relaxed is what we aim for. There is no dress code or anything like that. You just come in, eat, and go about your day. We do most of the work ourselves, from buying the groceries to serving the plates. It’s a lot of standing on your feet all day, but that is the life of a small business owner in Kolkata. We don't use any fancy marketing tricks or big promises. Simple needs like a place to eat that isn't too complicated are what we serve. It’s just a local spot for anyone who is hungry. We’ve been here for a bit now and we like the rhythm of this street.
