Tapasya Junction's owner said that the eatery is named after his daughter and it was her who came up with the idea of jumbo parathas.
"One day when her mother was sick and I brought parathas home, my one and a half-year-old daughter demanded different parathas. She said even Mumma can make such parathas. I want bigger ones," the owner narrated.
People from far away places come to relish the parathas and never fail to sing its praises. "It's not just jumbo in size, it is jumbo in taste as well," he said.
