About
Chai Nashta is a pure-vegetarian Rajasthani kitchen in Pendle Hill best known for its Dal Bati Churma — baked wheat balls served with lentil dal, ghee and sweet churma — alongside a rotating weekend thali and unlimited breakfast buffet. It brings a genuinely regional Rajasthani menu to Sydney’s west, and reviewers regularly call out the Dal Bati Churma feast as a full, home-style meal rather than a snack plate.
