Bandu Khan's Jacob Lines / Old Exhibition in 1948 was a small kebab shop on MA Jinnah Road (formerly Bandar Road). In 1957, he opened a regular restaurant on MA Jinnah Road
It is said that when the mausoleum of Quaid-e-Azam was under construction in Karachi, President Ayub came to visit it. Someone fed Ayub Khan Bandu Khan's kebabs. He liked these kebabs very much. When Ayub Khan ordered to meet Banu Khan, when he was introduced to Bandu Khan and asked Ayub Khan if he needed anything, Bandu Khan said, "Sir, I need a place for my kebab shop." So with the help of President Ayub Khan, he was allotted a plot of land on MA Jinnah Road. Here Bandu Khan established the Kebab House which is still standing. Bando Kan's fame took another four months when an industrial exhibition was held in the field in front of "Hassan Square" in 1963. Where the Expo Center is now.
