In mid 19th century, Mohammed Aziz was a cook in the royal court of [[Mughal Emperor]], however after the Bahadur Shah Zafar was exiled, he left the city for [[Meerut]] and later Ghaziabad. However, in 1911, when Delhi Durbar was held for the coronation of the King George V, one of Aziz's son Haji Karimuddin moved back to Delhi with an innovative idea of opening a Dhaba with the Mughal culinary, to cater the people coming from all over India to join the coronation. Haji Karimuddin started the Dhaba selling just two items of [[Alu gosht]] (mutton with potatoes) and [[Dal|Daal]] (lentil curry) served with [[Rumali Roti]].<ref>{{cite web <br />
