Thepla Junction Private Limited

We spend most of our mornings at Arcon Abhay in Karelibaug just getting things ready. It gets pretty busy here since we are right opposite Ratri Bazar, so there is always some noise from the street. We started Thepla Junction because we wanted to make the kind of food we grew up eating at home. Most days, it is just us rolling out dough and making sure the spices are right. It is not a fancy operation. We have a small team and we mostly just focus on getting the theplas out to people who are hungry. Sometimes the flour gets everywhere, and the kitchen gets hot, but that is just how it goes when you are cooking all day. We have been in this spot in Vadodara for a bit now. People stop by on their way to work or when they are heading home from the market. We don't really do big advertisements or anything like that. Most folks just know us from walking by Mangal Pandey Road. It is a simple setup with a few stoves and a lot of rolling pins. We try to keep things consistent so that when someone comes back, the taste is the same as last time. It’s hard work, especially during the summer months when the heat in the kitchen is almost too much, but we manage to keep the stoves going. We just do our thing here in Karelibaug and hope for the best every day.
