tea lovers
Tea is the most consumed beverage in the world besides water. There is nothing better than curling up on your couch with a cup of this ancient brew. Not only is it comforting and tastes great, but it has many other benefits that are worth the drink. It unites people over a strong cup in either chilly winters or even super hot summers. Our love for tea doesn’t fade away with seasons.
Dr Imran Uppal, Dr Taha Uppal and Barrister Asad Chohan launched ‘Chai O’Clock’ in Islamabad at a Red Carpet event in F7 Markaz. The event was hosted by models Nattie, Tania, Sunny, Sabeen, Rida and Iram; organised by Rezz Aly Shah. (The event took place before the coronavirus onslaught in Pakistan).
A few moons back, on a chilly Saturday evening, Dr Taha Uppal and Barrister Asad Chohan were travelling back from Lahore to Islamabad. Exhausted, they both craved a cup of tea. Their desire to sip a perfect karak chai led them to a typical dhaba on GT Road. This desi dhaba with beautiful truck art, soothing folk music, rusted crockery, and a cosy chaar pai caught their attention. “What a beautiful site it was,” exclaimed Dr Taha.
While they enjoyed tea and spicy pakoras with spicy mint chutney, they started remembering ‘good old days’ their parents spoke about. How people used to sit together after maghrib at dhabas round the corner. At that point, they both asked a question. ‘Why can we not bring our good times back’? This very thought led to the birth of the brand ‘Chai O Clock’. Cherry on top, Abrar Ul Haq’s Preeto was playing in the background and that’s when they both decided to kick off this brand. The label took inspiration from the quirky and fun song and hence became one of the reasons for its inception.
Reliving good memories, these friends have made an effort to bring good old days in your life. So, once the mayhem of coronavirus is over and people will resume to normal life, Chai O’ Clock is the place where you can come and enjoy with families, forget all your worries, laugh over a cup of tea, shed a few fun tears over Spicy Patakha Chicken, get carried away with special and succulent Balai Paratha or get stuffed with Mighty Undertaker Burger.
