Signature Dishes

When people come to Bhagat Tarachand, the one thing they can't get enough of, is our 'Kutchi Beer'. 30 years ago, in the enthusiasm of introducing new concepts, we decided to start serving the ever-popular chaas drink in beer bottles, and hence it was named Kutchi Beer. Needless to say, it really caught on and ever since, has been one of our best sellers. We pay special attention to the consistency of our chaas to get it just the right amount of body and subtle spice. The cooling drink is a perfect accompaniment to the variety of spices in our food menu.

Mumbai's love for food manifests itself gloriously in the many thali restaurants across the city that serve a set menu of usually Gujarati and Maharashtrian food, but Bhagat Tarachand is one of the very few where you can enjoy an authentic Punjabi thali. A great option for foodies who like to experiment and try out new vegetable preparations, each thali serves up three subzis, dal, chaas, rice, a sweet dish, phulkas, and papad. To keep our customers' taste buds and anticipation going, we have a rotating sabzi menu.

If clouds were edible, they still might not be able to compare with the softness of our phulkas! Similar to the 'roti', a staple of every Indian's daily meal, our phulkas are softer and thinner, prepared in the Sindhi way of serving them piping hot and saturated with ghee or butter. Our wheat is sourced all the way from Madhya Pradesh. These buttery soft, flaky phulkas are a marvellous upgrade of home cooked chapatis and are no doubt, a favourite of all our customers as they perfectly compliment all our sabzis and dals.

A best-selling snack here at Bhagat Tarachand is our Papad Churi. Originated and created in these very kitchens, the Papad Churi is a crunchy snack comprised of crushed papads, and melded together with a butter and spices combination. The Papad Churi's reputation really precedes itself as is usually ordered by our patrons before they even glance at the menu! The crunchy delight is always served fresh. Two other variants of the Papad Churi made available, are Khicha and Khich Churi, made with a rice papad variety that originates in Gujarat.

Simplicity and goodness in every bite, that's what our famous Dal Fry is. A staple of most Indians that requires no introduction, our Dal Fry is the culmination of a perfected homegrown recipe that adds a twist to the traditional yellow dal. Using precise quantities of red chillies and other spices that lend that zingy 'tadka' to our dal, we balance it out with a generous dollop of flavorful butter. The resulting dish that has been perfected over many years, has an unmatched mouthwatering taste that reminds you of home. It is also prepared 4 times a day to ensure freshness. A crowd favourite, it is not unusual to see every table at Bhagat Tarachand featuring a vessel of our Dal Fry, amongst the other fare!
