Our story
A Marwari kitchen in a Jaipur haveli, since 1987
Rajwada began when Thakur Bhanwar Singh Rathore opened the ground floor of his family haveli on MI Road and served the same thali his mother made in Nagaur — dal, baati, churma, and whatever the desert gave that season. The brass thalis are the same ones. The ghee still comes from the family's cows.
His son, Chef Devi Singh Rathore, added a shikaar kitchen for the old hunting recipes of Mewar and a rooftop for the winter, but the rules have not changed: nothing is refined, nothing is rushed, and no guest leaves without a second helping.
- Bilona ghee from our own Nagaur dairy
- Ker, sangri and mathania chilli from Jaisalmer and Jodhpur
- Baatis baked over cow-dung cakes, not in ovens
- Jain and no-onion-garlic versions of every veg dish
- Separate shikaar kitchen and vessels
- Zero-commission direct ordering on WhatsApp

Why Rajwada
What a Marwari kitchen promises
Refilled till you say bas
Every dine-in thali is unlimited. The ghee comes to the table in a brass lota and the baatis keep coming.
Desert ingredients, named
Ker and sangri from Jaisalmer, mathania chilli from Jodhpur, bajra from Barmer, ghee from our Nagaur dairy.
Two kitchens, one haveli
The veg kitchen has never seen meat. The shikaar page is cooked upstairs with its own vessels and staff.
Direct, not through apps
Order from this page and there is no 25% commission — so the thali costs less and the halwai gets paid more.

Guest stories
Word of mouth
We came for the Hawa Mahal and stayed for the thali. Ghee poured at the table, twelve refills of dal, and the folk singers took my mother's request. The ghevar is the best in Jaipur.
Meera AgarwalMalviya Nagar · Maharaja thali
Ordered dal-baati and laal maas on WhatsApp for a house party in C-Scheme. Confirmed in two minutes, arrived hot in forty, and the laal maas had the proper mathania fire.
Vikram ShekhawatC-Scheme · Delivery regular
Booked the rooftop for my parents' anniversary. Lanterns, the old city behind us, and a Jain version of the whole feast without being asked twice. Flawless.
