Dhaba is like a mini eatery which are specialized in normal food and not fast food and these are so popular in India because they sell good quality food and the prices they charge are less as compared to hotels and it's a very good business.

Wherever a normal food business, such as delicious home-cooked meals that are not too expensive, will always be in demand and will always be visited by many people. There are a number of Dhabas that use shops and there are roadside shops that use shanties and lesehan (sitting on carpets). but it seems better to try Roadside Dhaba first. How to calculate capital costs is also very easy, you only need equipment and the cost of each food menu.

I think it depends where the business wil be installed. In my country, small time vendors on the streets still need to have a business permit before it can operate. Is it also the same thing in your country?

That's like what we call Buka in Nigeria. Their foods are always very delicious and they don't charge over the roof. They are the savior of the boys on the streets.

Roadside business can be profitable but it is always risky. One man lost his entire family when they are buying beans cake in the morning. A trailer failed brake and crush the family members. We should not engage in business that may endanger our lives.

Sir, life is a risk. We cannot say because something bad happened somewhere sometime, we won't live our lives.

It depends on the scale of the business you have in mind, if you plan on going big like having two to three cooks or more then it would definitely cost more than when you start small.
