We got a lunchbox… steeped with love from Elaichi Co.!
THE LUNCHBOX has been celebrating the Berkeley community by highlighting local South Asian businesses and the people behind the food that makes us feel at home.
Our dabbawallahs stopped by Elaichi Co. to pick up a chai on their route. Because every busy dabbawallah deserves a perfect cup of chai on the go.
Elaichi Co. reminds us why chai is more than a drink; it’s a ritual, a source of comfort, and a little piece of home in every cup. The cast and crew of THE LUNCHBOX have been loving every sip!
