Lucky Restaurant

This is a tea-stop that’s unique, and slightly bizarre with an interesting backstory. When the owner realised that the land he wanted to build this establishment on was once a cemetery, he decided that instead of disturbing the dead, he would build around them. Consequently, coffins and tables coexist in one space. This strange feature attracted many curious visitors, including MF Hussain, who became a regular and even gifted the owner an impromptu painting that still hangs on the walls.
