We have all the time in the world for you

Dear Visitor
Our menu is friendly knock at your sense of humour & political acumen. We have tried to open a new window to afford you a fresher glance at the same, commonplace issues and topics.

Together with stimulating gobbledygook, inclusive platform, and some thought provoking, indigenously named, permissible in Pakistan, drinkables & eatables, we have on offer all the time in the world for you - to be with yourself, a near and dear one, a perfect stranger; a former beau or even a present foe!

All prices reflect our principle of indiscriminate inclusion, i.e., we do not wish to discourage the thinking and creative people. Having pretensions of belonging to the same species, we know the limits of affordability. But, not to break the hearts of those to whom spending is a 'Tea Party', we do have some pricey items! They are expensive for they are unique & custom made, or we have done very hard thinking in fabricating them.

You are welcome to hold private parties, training workshops, press conferences, intellectual get-together; equally welcome you are to be a part of 'trite gathering' arranged by your adversaries. We proclaim 'amazing combination of privacy, elegance, warmth, taste & economy'!

However, We don't promise to entertain your preference for a good crowd. As they say, birds of a feather coffee together…
                                                                                          Enjoy your visit…

Cool Platform

We do not sell aerated drinks; we offer fresh alternatives

Jam -e- Ulfat aka Liquid Affection - A glass of boiled water - C J's affectionate welcome!

Lal Sharbat - Traditional Rooh Afza and a tribute to Left's liquidated Struggle in Pakistan; comes with traces of lemon - Reminiscence of still present oral resistance.

Hara Sharbat - No its not Salam to the Right; its tribute to ecology, environment, Proceeds go to Bag Bahar Trust.

Federal Smoothies - National yogurt blended with ethnic fruits, Provincial claims for equitable water distribution roughly shaken to Punjab's advantage. Some secret ingredients are added to generate smooth looking refreshment. Dedicated to unity in diversity of Pakistani politick.

Civil Military Mix aka dudh soda - A Pakistani household offering of sorts! Meek and mild civil milk is mixed with uniformed but effervescent soda; higgledy-piggledy saccharine elements of intelligentsia are whimsically added to sweeten the mix. Taste may vary as its 'work in progress' recipe albeit decades of experimentation. It has particular digestive value for progressive & democratic stomachs.

Sardar Sattoo - A prominent symbol of Punjabi culture (both sattoo and Sardar). It's summer specialty. Dedicated to the Punjabi vivacity the world over.

Lallo Lassi Dilbihar - Named after legendary Lallo Parsad, its our inventive specialty. Down-to-earth, popular yogurt base flavoured with sharp tinge of green-peppery sense of humour, blended in pulsing awami water.

Madhuri Masti - Vibrant, vervy, refreshing, desi, dynamic drink - tribute to subcontinental femininity that - being basically brilliant, talented to the core with abundance of charm & intelligence - keeps dazzling despite patriarchal haze.

Pak Bharat Dosti Surprisingly unsurprising mixing of fresh orange with equally fresh lemon; the natural affinity of the two produces a cool, refreshing blend. It tastes great but the supply is uncertain. Orange denotes India (size, variety, juicy); Lemon, Pakistan (wider use; more acidic, omni-presence).

Dilli-dilpazir A friendship filled fruit cocktail. Tastes great when taken informally. Official recipes mix sour grapes; CJ recipe reflects popular demand. The drink is dedicated to wishful free flow of mangoes, if not people (though why not!) across Wahga.

South Asian Dip - Diverse, deep and delicious! Good with any snacky move

Rawadari - A pluralist mix made from various ethnic drinks; its colour may keep changing, but the essence and spirit of the mix remains intact. The 'otherness' is sprinkled on top. Worth a sip. Proceeds go to Tolerance.

Development milkshakes - Refreshing varieties: top down, participatory, bottom up (the difference is of apertures; substance remains the same!); aided with loaned ice creams.

'Underdevelopment' Juices - Local, fresh, raw fruits squeezed without foreign assistance. Served without industrial pretensions, modern paradoxes or sophisticated contradictions. Nevermind development, mind your juice.

Hot n Warm

Vajpayee's cup of CoffeeOld, poetically smooth, chronically alone, mythologically brewed, firmly soft and - in short - more than you can expect. There is no foreign hand in its making. It's well cooked, not raw. Served with conservative cookies.

Musharaf Guespresso Not old; anybody's guess! Seasoned & intensely mature! Khaki, softly firm, brewed under high pressure of discipline. It's base is very, very strong and the real kick is in the aftertaste! Served with handpicked cookies.

UNDP - Ultra Naïve Dudhe Patti

uNclear Qahwa - A very hot and heated drink; extracted from grass roots, enriched to enviable limits; very transparent formula, can be swapped with any T-technology. It was originally nuclear, but its representation has recently been twisted. Comes with traces of ambiguity, in suspicious saucer and with crumbling cookies!

Muralitharan Coffee - Made from Sri Lankan coffee CJ style; if taken black, it would spin you up like legendary off-spinner's delivery would lazy batsmen!

Siasi - Ridh

American democracy - A greatly good-looking dish; its taste varies to suit the taste buds across the globe. Weaker eggs beaten beyond recognition, mixed with maverick chicken from Texas, cooked in oil of national interest.

Military Intervention - Some like it, some hate it but all take it. A beefy main course, quietly cooked in chaotic political pressure cooker. Served with opportunist selection of various vegetables in Pakistan (VVIP), and free cup of AccountabilTea.

MMA - Murgh Malai Aloo - A unique culinary alliance of poultry, vegetables, dairy! Hale and hearty potatoes, baked conservatively, sprinkled with aggressive spices; comes with thick gravy. Sounds hot but easy to chew. Served with LFO (Light Fried Onions).

V VIP - Various Vegetables in Pakistan! The combination of VVIPs will keep changing with seasonal change in political alliance, governments, and climate. You can go for boiled, stir-fried, well-baked or properly cooked ones depending upon your level of grudge against VVIPs.

Sham Democracy - It's a fruitful desert; scapegoat's milk, mixed with contentious split-milk allegations & promises of reformed grazing. Recommended with Military Intervention.

Al MudRik - Chicken chops with baked potato, ginger beside, garlic bread, fresh salad

Mukhumbi Chicken & mushroom cooked in milk cream; served with garlic bread and salad

Alpameno Home made lasagna mixed with salad, and garlic bread
