আমাদের বিশেষ Our speciality

Signature Shutki Vortas

Shutki — sun-dried fish from the Bay of Bengal — is the soul of Bangladeshi home cooking. We source the good stuff, clean it carefully and roast it over an open flame before it ever meets the shil-pata.

Homestyle Vortas

Smoky begun, buttery aloo, nutty dal — the vortas that turn a plate of rice into a feast. Mix and match for a true Bengali spread.

Our story

From the shil-pata to your table

In Bangladeshi homes, vorta is love made by hand: something roasted, something pounded, a drizzle of pungent mustard oil and a squeeze of lime. We started cooking for friends in Dallas who missed that taste of home — and the word spread.

  • Shutki cleaned, soaked and flame-roasted in small batches
  • Cold-pressed mustard oil, fresh chilies and garlic in every batch
  • No preservatives — made for your date, never sitting on a shelf
