Most of the mohallas of Bhera had tandoories in the past , managed by elderly females . Women and children brought their kneaded dough ( gondha whoa aata) to tandoories for baking the roties. Charges were either one piasa ( 64 in a rupee ) or dough equivalent to one roti .
Tandoori was a meeting place for the women for a brief period , sort of a social get-together as they waited for their roties to be baked . They exchanged pleasantries , family news and discussed their issues . Now, hardly such tandoories are left in the mohallas of Bhera. Times have changed !

ایک محاورہ تھا یہ بات فلان تندور پر پہنچاؤ ۔یعنی اس آدمی کو بات بتا دو وہ بات جلد ہر گھر ہرجگہ پھیل جائیگی ۔یہ تندور واقعی دنیا جہان کی باتیں پھیلانے میں اہم سماجی کردار
ادا کرتے تھے
