In the past couple of days, without any publicity, the popular eatery has returned to busy old schedules, but with a limited menu.
"But my patrons don't seem to mind. They have been stepping in to hang out, like in the old days. Even a group of young French nationals came yesterday and said they loved being here. We were happy to welcome them back," Kharose smiled.
It was a chilly evening, around 7.15 p.m. Feb 13, 2010, when a powerful bomb ripped through the German Bakery, situated in the posh Koregaon Park area here.
The blast claimed 17 lives, including those of five foreigners, and injured another 65 patrons present on the premises.
Kharose took over the responsibility of resurrecting German Bakery, as her mother Smita and younger brother Aditya had health problems that prevented them from getting too involved with the bakery. Her younger sister Shraddha was busy with her studies to be an engineer.
