Vijay Restaurant

The bright yellow exterior of Vijay Restaurant stands out against the dusty streets of Rawaton Ka Bass. Local families crowd the narrow entrance every evening for plates of mirchi bada, a deep-fried chili stuffed with spiced potatoes. The kitchen staff fries these snacks in large iron vats, continuing a recipe that has stayed in the same family for three generations. Customers wait on the sidewalk for their orders, eating quickly while the oil is still hot enough to burn their fingers.
