If there’s one place in Bhubaneswar that deserves to be called a legend, it is none other than Nanda’s Roll Center. What began in the early 80s as the iconic Casino Rolls—with Nanda Bhai learning the art from his Guru, Kurbaan Chacha—has today become a household name and an inseparable part of the city’s food culture.
Their very first counter at Bapuji Nagar, in front of the Bombay Dyeing showroom, may have been humble, but it introduced something completely new to Odisha: the Kathi Kebab Roll. And since then, for more than five decades, Nanda Bhai has carried that legacy forward with unmatched consistency.
I’ve been relishing his rolls for over 43 years, and the magic has never faded. Juicy, tender chicken kebabs, the crunch of onions, the perfect balance of spices—all wrapped in a soft, freshly made paratha. It’s not just food, it’s an experience that has stood the test of time.
Many may try to recreate it, but no one comes close to the flavor, authenticity, and soul that Nanda’s Roll Center brings to every bite. This isn’t just about taste—it’s about nostalgia, about tradition, about the pioneering spirit that introduced Odisha to the joy of rolls.
For Bhubaneswar, Nanda’s isn’t just a food joint. It’s an institution, a part of our lives, and a taste that connects generations.
