چائے خانہ CHAAYÉ KHANA

چائے خانہ

Seventy blends.
One unhurried ritual.

Karak pulled thick off the flame, parathas laminated by hand, bookshelves you may raid, and strings played live after dark. This is the tea house, revived.

THE POUR

Karak is a craft,
not a hurry.

Our chai walas simmer each pot until it turns copper — cardamom split by hand, leaves measured by eye, milk given the time it asks for. Seventy loose-leaf blends wait behind the counter, from Malabar Assam to salted Kashmiri pink.

BREAKFAST, ALL DAY

Qeema and lacha paratha — the house legend.

Slow-cooked mince, flaky hand-rolled paratha, a fried egg if you know what's good for you. Halwa puri on the weekend, French toast for the traitors. All of it until close.
