Serving up the locals since before 1946, this legacy spot still pulls in chai lovers and bun fans from across the city and tourists alike. The air here is thick with the aroma of freshly brewed chai and buttery buns. One visit, and you’ll know exactly why this place remains an all-time favourite!
What’s so special about its Maska Bun & Irani Chai?!
Now run by the third generation, this spot remains a favourite among locals who swear by its simple yet satisfying flavours. What makes the Maska Bun here stand out is the generous layer of fresh, desi makkhan that melts into the soft bun. The Irani Chai, on the lighter side, balances the richness, and the Amdavadi way to enjoy it is by dipping the bun in chai, a small ritual that adds to the experience!
Beyond chai and bun, the place also serves a variety of dishes, from Egg Bhurji and Keema to Mutton Bhuna, Chicken Masala, and even a simple Khichdi for those looking for a homely meal.
