The Legend Begins
Founder of Tunday Kababi Late Haji Murad Ali lost his hand while flying a kite on a terrace — the saddest accident of his life, but also a boon in disguise.
In India a person with leg disability is called "Langadey" and a person with hand disability is called "Tunday".
Royal Patronage
Once the Nawab of Lucknow, being a foodie, could not eat gourmet food because all of his teeth were lost due to old age. He was so fond of kababs that he organized a contest for cooking the softest and most succulent kababs and declared that the winner would enjoy royal patronage henceforth.
The secret recipe was created by Haji Murad Ali, and as soon as he won that contest he became popular in Lucknow and all over the world with the name "Tunday Kababi". Since then he has enjoyed royal patronage for his softest and most succulent kababs.
