The Dhaba – 1st Chapter: Mr Sharif and 2nd Chapter: Mr Bhari ()

Plot Summary

Mr. Mohammed Sharif and his daughter Zaitoon Sharif seated at their family-run Desi Dhaba restaurant in Pollokshields, recall his earliest memories of wonder and confusion at perceiving the grandeur of the Empire—like the cat’s eyes on the highway that he thought shattered under the wheels, but were replaced every morning. Mr. Hardial Bhari’s experiences of arriving in Britain to join his wife Mrs. Surinder Bhari in the early 1970s, hopeful for a stable life and a respectable job—instead met with limited employment in the transportation industry, and the pervasive discrimination he had to face everyday.
