History

There's this Bakery in Hyderabad which is a few kilometers away from Karachi called Bombay bakers, this bakery is 109 years old. It is a business run through the family and specifically bake cakes. The family is well renowned and called the Thadani family. people come from all around to get a taste for their delicious cakes.

The Plan

So my friends decided to get the cake and eat it. The cake is sold out till 10 AM in the morning so we drove from 4 AM when even the sun didn't come out. The journey was of 2.5 hours without any stops but we did stop for an early breakfast and an amazing view of the sun. The best part after the cake was the ride all of us jam packed in a car quarreling over the aux cord and having all kinds of fun. We didn't even realize and already we were in Hyderabad.

The big problem was till then most of the mobiles were below 10% of battery. This is a city not well traveled among friends so we decided to use the battery efficiently and just use it for the maps. We roamed around the streets of Hyderabad for quite a while and till then the mobiles had been switched off, well then we started to panic because it was already 8:30 and our journey would be a waste if we didn't get the cake.

Eventually we found our way by asking residents for the bakery obviously everyone knew about it because of it's fame and history. Finally we reached the place and it was crowded and there was an old uncle on the counter. There is only a specific flavor for each day luckily i was strawberry for the day and we bought two cakes which cost us around 5$ well money spent wisely.

The cake was different the top covering wasn't creamy instead it had a very sweet taste which would melt in your mouth like butter. In all honesty it wasn't that amazing it was dry as it lacked the creamy texture and wasn't light because of all the butter used. But for a story it sure was something getting a cake from a 100+ year old bakery it's something historic. I mean the bakery is older than the country of Pakistan which is just over 70 so it has some royalty to it.
