Aman Vashno Dhaba

This dhaba is located in Industrial Area A in Ludhiana, specifically over in Hargobind Nagar. We are right by Chandan Industries. It's a very busy industrial patch, so we mostly see workers and truck drivers. Aman Vashno Dhaba is a plain place. We don't have fancy decorations or air conditioning. We have big pots and heavy pans because we cook in large amounts for the lunch rush. It gets very hot in the kitchen, especially in the summer months. 141003 is a hardworking area and we try to match that energy. We start early to get everything ready before the shifts change at the factories. The food is what you'd expect from a dhaba—nothing small or delicate. It’s meant to keep you going for the rest of your shift. We use the same recipes we’ve always used. Sometimes we run out of things if it’s been a particularly busy day. We just tell people what’s left and they’re usually fine with it. It’s a simple arrangement. We provide the food and they provide the company. It's a rough and ready kind of life, but it suits us just fine. There's no pressure to be anything other than a local dhaba where people can get a full plate for a fair price. We like the honesty of the work.
