Late Mr Jehangir Cama's hotel Cama at Khanpur was easily one of the first 4-star luxury business hotel in the '60s.
Fast forward to a time between late-80s and 90s (time when I was little child) this hotel and it's unique cafe, Silver Leaf, was at it's peak of popularity. I've heard stories of patrons visiting SL twice a week for it's signature Club Sandwiches available especially at late nights. It used to be THE place to be during Navratri, with tired revellers finding comfort in a meal so good. I remember this one night I'd visited with cousins, it was 2:30am, and SL had a waiting of about an hour; which we were happy to wait out.
I recall cycling past this place early mornings on my way to the Khanpur rifle club, slowing down just so that I can smell the morning preps of the kitchen for a while longer.
SL has been a part of a lot of us without us really taking notice. It's like that 3am friend you know you can rely on everytime.
SL has also been a part of plenty late night Sunday meals where we would go and celebrate a really busy yet satisfying day at Goodies. We rewarded ourselves with their HARIYALI CHICKEN TIKKA IN CHEESE NAAN and CBM-Roomali Roti combo!
SL still continues to be that 3am buddy who's up for a great meal!
The picture here is an emotion on a plate. It's seen the best and worst of us and still stuck around.
To the legacy of Late Mr Cama,
Cheers n Happy Eatin'!! #ipaidforit #foodaholicsinahmedabad #foodaholics #ahmedabad #livetoeat #foodhunt #foodfind #foodblog #foodwriters #food #foodlove #foodgasm #foodporn #foodstagram #instafood #foodnetwork #foodfeed #foodtalk #foodtalkindia #placestoeatinahmedabad #foodinahmedabad #thingstodoinahmedabad #silverleaf #camahotel
