Asif Hassan, a Bangladeshi who is working in Singapore, was among the thousands to react to Peyala's new branch.
"LOOK WHAT OPENED JUST BESIDE MY OFFICE !TAKE ALL MY MONEYYYYY," he wrote in a Facebook post.
Speaking to The Business Standard, he said he had always loved the food there.
"It's super great. Now I can take my colleagues there. I always tell my colleagues how great Bangladeshi food is and now I can get them to taste it. This is a good, expensive area. If the food is good, there will line every lunch hour, since South Asian food options are still limited."
He, however, mentioned that the Bangladeshi menu was not yet available.
Alongside its flagship outlet at Banani-11, Peyala Café also operated at the Gulshan Avenue and Karwan Bazar.
