Oye Punjabi (Kalyan West)

Punjab for all your senses


Situated in Kalyan, Oye Punjabi does not get too many visitors apart from those who traverse the highways regularly. The advantage it has, though, is plenty of space – not just for customers to eat but also for actual agriculture, something one associates inveterately with Punjab. And so, as you enter the portico, you get to see real jowar and bajra crops growing to your left, and a scarecrow on duty. Get in, and if you are lucky to come on a special evening, what greets you is the geets and ghazals being performed live. And then there is the authentic Punjabi food – soft and spicy shredded chicken and yellow dal with mouth-watering paranthas dipped in butter. But a must-have here is the Punjabi staple makki di roti and sarson da saag – maize bread with a green paste of mustard leaves that is just the right mixture of sweet and pungent. Overall, Oye Punjabi is a microcosm of Punjab which just leaves you with a craving for more such food in the heart of the city as well.
