After months of aggressive campaigning, be it in Lok Sabha polls or in state Assembly elections, the Gandhi family has finally called it a break on Sunday. Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Congress MPs from Wayanad and Rae Bareli respectively, stepped out from their hectic timetables to indulge in a relaxing family get together at the iconic Kwality restaurant at Connaught Place in Delhi.
Sonia Gandhi, Priyanka’s husband Robert Vadra, their daughter Miraya Vadra, and Robert’s mother accompanied them. The family enjoyed all the restaurant’s renowned dishes, including its signature chhole bhature, in a lively and easy-going atmosphere.
Rahul Gandhi shared some snaps from the day out on his WhatsApp status, captioned as: “Family lunch at iconic Kwality Restaurant”. Photographs that surfaced subsequently online are warm, reflective scenes of family bonding. A picture that captured the netizens showed how precious this glance behind the curtain of the Gandhis’ private life. The pictures are heartwarming:.
The photographs depict Sonia Gandhi with a warm smile, and Robert Vadra excitedly holding up a freshly puffed bhatura. Symbolically, too, the photos had much to say: three parliamentarians—Rahul, Priyanka, and Sonia—gathering over a meal.
Kwality, the venue for this special gathering, has a glorious history. It was opened during the pre-Independence era and was favorite among American soldiers stationed in India. It has enjoyed a loyal following over the years for its timeless menu, mainly its legendary chhole bhature.
The restaurant’s famous bhature, prepared with the signature handclapping method, have always been adored by the patrons-those who are as different as Maneka Gandhi and actress Nargis. Trends in food change, but the appeal of Kwality stays on.
In an earlier interview with *The New Indian Express*, Divij and Dhruv Lamba, descendants of founder P.L. Lamba, spoke about preserving the restaurant’s legacy. “There’s no secret to our chhole bhature—just skilled chefs and a time-tested recipe,” Divij remarked, adding, “But our Chicken Ala Kiev is a close contender, though nothing beats the bhature.”
For the Gandhi family, it was more than a meal; it would be comfort, nostalgia, and bonding at a place that’s steeped in history and culinary excellence.
