In this super special food tour, Anubhav Sapra will take you on a nostalgic gastronomic journey across the bustling lanes of his hometown Muzaffarpur in Bihar. Apart from being an important trade center of the state, Muzaffarpur is known as the 'Land Of Shahi Litchi' as it is a leading producer of this deliciously succulent fruit. Brace yourself for some heartwarming moments and a huge array of mouthwatering street food that Anubhav has grown up eating. It was an overwhelming experience for him to reconnect with his favourite vendors and their dishes. Let's get started.

We began with a nashta platter from Makhan Shah Halwai that consisted of puris, no onion garlic aloo curry, malpua and jalebi. Overall it was simple and hearty and the freshly made malpuas were pure bliss.

The next destination was one of Anubhav's childhood favourite stop. Ram Bharan Aloo Kachalu wale was the place that he frequented with his friends while returning from school. It was a ritual to relish the ghugni muri and aloo Kachalu from here. So during this visit we refreshed the memories of these two dishes. Everything from the taste to the arrangement of things on the cart and the warmth of Ram Bharan uncle was all the same. It felt so good to be able to express our gratitude to him for the good times.

After that super nostalgic encounter we relished some several biniya and freshly made lavang lata from Hotel Bahadur. Both these traditional sweet treats were fresh and luscious. The next dish that impressed us was a well assembled Dahi puri from Chintu Dahi puri wale. It was simply lip smacking.

We then came across a popular pav bhaji wale at Safi Saudi market. Along with the usual assortment of veggies, their version of this iconic street side dish had spinach and a distinct handmade spice mix, both of which lent it a unique flavour.

From there we headed to Hari Ji Kachori Ghugni Stall. It was a delightful place full of yummy fried snacks. Our pick was a plate of Choti Kachori that was a combination of sattu stuffed Kachori and Ghugni. It was super delicious and the flavour of besan fried in mustard oil was a treat for the taste buds.

It is soon time for another round of sweets at two consecutive places - Bharat Jalpan and Maharaj Dugdh Bhandar. At the former one we tried rasmadhuri, balushahi and chena khajoor while at the later we tried rasgulla, lal mohan and raskadam. In terms of taste, the second place garners an extra edge for serving optimally sweet treats in comparison to the first one. Anubhav has lots of yummy memories at Bharat Jalpan which he frequented with his parents while being out for shopping or so.

It was soon time to punctuate the gluttony with a paan and some jamun flavoured digestive drink both of which are known to speed up the digestive process and cleanse the palate. The next destination was Sundar Maharaj Pede wala. This Rajasthani sweet and snack shop is popular for its pedas and different varieties of namkeen. We tried some dalmoth and peda. The rich texture and the soothing sweet fragrance of cardamom made the pedas irresistible.

This was followed by a playful helping of aloo tikki ghugni chaat from Ma Bhawani Chaat Bhandar.
Our penultimate destination was a Bindeswar Ji ki dukan at Purani Bazar Chowk. Anubhav who grew up in the lane just next to this pakoda and chup stall was overwhelmed meeting Bindeswar ji. He recounted some heartwarming memories of the fried treats that he used to binge on from this place. A morsel of the crisp beguni stirred up more memories.

The final destination of this close to heart food tour was Sindhi Sweet Shop. Here we tried the topi khaja which is a delicious multi layered, firm and glazed sweet treat. Hope you enjoy this recollection of culinary memories.

DARBHANGA FOOD Tour I UNIQUE Onion Pakoda I LOCAL fish & Meat भात I ORANGE Rasgulla I KADHI Samosa

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


Situated in the heart of Bihar's Mithilanchal region, Darbhanga is one of the oldest and heritage rich cities of this north Indian state. Due to the presence of numerous architectural marvels and glorious heritage of arts and music, it is often referred to as the cultural capital of Bihar. This historical city with a splendid past, that was at the zenith during the rule of Raj Darbhanga, is also renowned for fishes, fox nut cultivation, paan and mangoes. We were there for a day to explore the popular foods. So let's see what all things we ate during this day long food tour.

We started the food tour from Manoj tea stall opposite Bandhan bank. The reticent Manoj Ji had placed a big pot of ghugni on a small table outside the stall. This ghugni was being served with littis or bhunja. We went for the bhunja ghugni combo. It was crisp, spicy, tangy and flavourful. This was followed by an invigorating cup of special tea from the same place, which had a little coffee in it.

Then we took the main road and reached Mirzapur to eat at Sardaar Pakodewala. Situated near Gurunanak Singh Sabha Gurdwara, this popular snack point actually doesn't have a proper name. Here we met the smiling Gurmeet ji who told us about their bestseller fare i.e the Pyaji Pakoda. It was a unique fritter made with one large onion that was first cut open like a blooming lotus flower, then sprinkled with spices and double fried. They served it with chole and chutney. The sweetness and sharpness of the onion came through well and the crisp and savoury besan coating was fun too.

After the pakoda and a brief chit chat with the genial Gurmeet ji, we reached this amusing place outside whom it was written Hum Lassi Yahin Peete hain. The huge sofas placed inside made it appear like a furniture shop but the live lassi counter outside affirmed its actual identity. Those sofas were the part of the fancy seating arrangements inside the shop. So we grabbed a glass of hand churned lassi and went inside. It was rich, creamy and luscious. The topping of grainy khoya added to it's opulence.

Then we strolled down the adjacent vegetable market and kela mandi to reach Suraj Meat House. This humble looking eatery is one of the city's most popular non veg destinations. Darbhanga being a land of fishes, the menu here is dominated by fish dishes. More than the affordable and delicious menu, it was Suraj Ji's warm and hospitable persona that is the crowd puller. Here we polished off some parboiled rice with rewa fry, sighi curry, jhinga masala and mutton curry. The food was great.

As we headed further in search of more flavours, we spotted an old man selling Balushahi. This traditional sweet native to Saiyadpur in Sitamarhi Bihar was a syrup rich, cooked chena ball. Ram Kishore Ji, the vendor procures it from the above mentioned place and sells it over here at Barabazar.

We then took a paan break and moved on to try small samosas from Jagdish Samosewale near Poonam Cinema Hall. But as the place was closed, we had it from Ravi kumar Samose wala. The bite sized samosa served with kadhi and onions made for a hearty snack.

From there we reached station road to check out an old snack shop named Sri Chakradhari Bhojanalaya, whose dalmoth, sev and nimki were a favourite at Anubhav' maternal grandparents house. But unfortunately we realized that its glory has drastically faded away and now it is barely surviving with limited fares.

With a sense of longing we took an auto ride to our last destination Sweet Home sweet shop at Laheriasarai. At this Bengali shop we tried orange, raskadam and chhena jalebi. We also visited their sweet making facility.

This was a gratifying tour where not only did we stuff ourselves with tasty food but also garnered some lovely inspirations from the amiable vendors.

GAYA Food Tour I World Famous TILKUT, ANARSA & MAGHAI PAAN I FUSION Chaat, HUGE Imarti, Aloo Kachalu

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Patna:


Continuing with our culinary quest, we have arrived at the ancient holy city of Gaya. Also known as the land of enlightenment and salvation, Gaya is a sacred place for Hindu, Buddhist and Jain devotees alike. Since it is frequented by a large number of tourists and pilgrims, this second largest city of Bihar boasts of a vibrant street food scenario that is dominated by traditional fares. So let's take you on an immersive street food tour of Gaya.

Before starting with our eating spree we first visited the Mahabodhi Temple at Bodh gaya. It is one of the major Buddhist worship sites in the world. It being the revered place where Lord Buddha had attained Enlightenment, the sprawling premises was full of monks and other devotees who have arrived here to seek divine blessings. On emerging from the temple complex, we noticed a few eating joints, primarily selling Tibetan fares. Here we savoured a fresh phaley bread and some rice noodles soup. Both the dishes procured from women vendors were deliciously hearty.

We then set out for Gaya. On reaching there we first offered our prayers at the famous Vishnupada temple and then began the food tour. The first stop was Rajasthan Bhojnalay where the no onion garlic Bihari thali impressed us with its home styled taste and affordability.

The second destination was a family run chaat centre named Kesari chat. Here polished off a plate of palak paneer chat which was uniquely zesty. This was followed by an equally brilliant and surprising aloo malpua.

As we kept walking looking for the next stop, we came by a humble open tea stall and stopped there for some lemon tea. From there we went to have a humongous imarti from Sri Ganinnath Imarti Bhandar, which is probably the best imarti shop in the city. The hot syrup laden crisp orangish loop was simply delicious.

We then took a paan break at Mathura paan. The classic Maghai Paan cleansed our palate and primed it for more food. Here we got to learn about the different varieties of suparis.

Next was the turn of Gaya's renowned Tilkut. It is a traditional sweet made with sugar and sesame seeds. At Jauhar ji's shop we got the opportunity to witness the complex and laborious process of making these Tilkuts. It is fascinating to see so many people engaged in this elaborate task. We loved the pleasantly sweet and nutty taste of these Tilkuts. They were so amazing that we even got some packed.

As the food tour kept extending with local inputs, we took another tea break to energise ourselves for the upcoming stops. This was followed by aloo kachalu and some nimki. The former one, a spicy, tangy and savoury mix of boiled potatoes with spices that was served in a leaf plate.

Our penultimate stop was Jai shree Ram Tilkut Bhandaar. We were there to try a very special Bihari sweet called Anarsa. These ghee fried rice flour based dough balls were so delicious. We also tried some kala jamun and samosas that are the two best selling items at this place.

The final destination of this immersive food tour, that spanned for the whole day was aloo dum papdi chaat vendor. Both the dish and the vendor selling it were quite fascinating. This robust snack was a potpourri of nearly 4 to 5 curries.

With it we wrapped up this surfeit food tour that acquainted us with so many wonderful flavours contained in the lanes of Gaya.

UNSEEN MITHILA FEAST in Bihar I Tilkor + Arikanch + Bagiya + chura dahi + sajmani + sarso machh

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


Maithil cuisine is a culinary style which originated in Mithila, a region of the Indian subcontinent, which comprises many districts of Bihar. Mithila is famous for its Paan, Maach and Makhaan culture. Here the cuisine is characterised by native ingredients and rustic cooking techniques.

Talking about the food traditions of Mithila, we saw that community feasts also called Bhoj is a common thing. Almost every religious ceremony is accompanied by one or more community feasts where people from the locality come together to enjoy lunch or dinner. Food is served on banana or lotus leaves and is eaten by sitting on the ground in dedicated rows.

During our Bihar food exploration we got the opportunity to attend a Maithli bhoj bhaat in Darbhanga that was organized by our gracious host Sri Manikant Jha ji. We started our journey from Muzaffarpur where we first polished off some chura dahi for breakfast and then left for Darbhanga on a bus.

After alighting at Darbhanga, we took a rickshaw ride to Manikant Ji's home which was abuzz with family members and guests. There we received a warm welcome by the family and we also met Dr. Jay Prakash Chaudhary, a notable Maithili poet who writes and presents humorous poems.

After a brief chat with him we visited the cooking area where the ladies of the family both young and old were busy preparing the elaborate meal. At one part of the courtyard some snacks items were being prepared, on another part the main course and at some other corner fish delicacy was being cooked. Once the snacks were done we tried them. This included misti and namkeen makhan, pochua, chawal ke atte ki roti with chutney and malpua. Soon after we joined the ladies for the preparation of the main course to understand the ingredients and cooking process. With such great enthusiasm and effortless coordination, in no time the food was ready.

A particular area of the open courtyard was readied for seating. As per the tradition, the spread was first offered to the Almighty and was then taken away to be served. We joined Manikant ji, some of his family members and guests for the feast. The enormous spread that was served in a set sequence was overwhelming. There was rice, dal, fritters, fried treats, differently flavoured mash, chutneys, saag, fish curry, curd and sweets. It was such a special feeling to enjoy the meal over light hearted communication. What a gratifying opportunity it was to discover about the Maithili cuisine over here.

Muzaffarpur NON VEG Food Tour I EXOTIC TROTTERS (GODI) + Mutton TAAS + Chicken LOLLYPOP + EGG Roll

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


Continuing with our food explorations in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, which is also the hometown of our foodie in chief Anubhav Sapra, we decided to explore the non vegetarian food scene out here which had a lot to offer. The city has some good non veg eateries that are huge crowd pullers. So come along with us as we savour some scrumptious mutton and chicken dishes.

We started with the uniquely delicious mutton dish called Taas from Amar meat shop. It's a mutton dish where marinated mutton pieces are cooked in a generous amount of oil on a customized rectangular tray-like griddle. The meat was tender, succulent and rich flavours of mustard oil and aromatic spices.

While strolling down to our next meat destination we beheld a cart selling herbal lemon tea and got intrigued by the stuff. So we bought a cup to see how it was. This lightly brewed lemon tea mixed with 14 ingredients based spice mix was so good. A humble cart serving such an amazingly healthy concoction was a matter of revelation.

Soon we arrived at our next destination which is Tripti Meat House. They are renowned for their meat paratha which is a combination of parathas and a rich and flavourful semi dry mutton curry. This slightly sweet aromatic mutton curry was lip smacking. Here we also tried some Hyderabadi biryani which was average in taste and some godi or curry made of mutton trotters. The trotter curry was spicy yet very delicious. One can taste the richness of the bone marrow and the unique texture of the collagen.

On exiting Tripti meat house, we saw a busy well lit cart selling taas meat so we decided to give it a try. It was run by a young lad named Rohit who told us about the chicken taas that he was making. Theirs one was a customized version of the traditional taas. It was more like a juicy and flavorful stir fried chicken.

Next we had some bhunja from a roadside vendor. It is a no oil mixture made with instantly dry roasted cereals and legumes. The hand pounded chilli, garlic and ginger chutney added a punch to its heartily rustic taste.

From there we came to another busy stall selling egg rolls. Here we tried a soft, crunchy, succulent and super yummy egg and chicken roll and some chicken stuffed pastry that looked like gujias.

This was followed by a tasting of chicken chilli and paratha from another popular eatery that was bustling with customers. This paratha and Indo Chinese style chicken semi dry curry was decent.

Our penultimate stop was Bablu Fast Food. We ordered their best selling dish, which is chicken lollipop. Unlike the usual chicken lollipop that is made with chicken wings, their version was made with chicken legs. So the chicken lollipop here was basically is a double fried chicken leg piece. It wasn't super delicious but was fun to have.

The last stop of this non veg food tour was Prakash Pan Bhandar where we had a typical paan. This post meal treat enjoyed by many helps in the digestion of food and also acts as a palette cleanser. Baba, the genial owner of the shop, informed us about the health benefits of consuming betel leaves and he also gave a brief about it's mythological association.

In Muzaffarpur the love for a rich and robust meat delicacy is evident from the flavoursome curries available on the streets. This was quite a gratifying experience. We hope you enjoyed the journey as well.

LOCAL food experience in Village Dhokraha - BEST Dahi Chura + Kele ka Kofta + Garai Machhi

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


In the penultimate episode of the amazing Bihar food series, in search of more local flavours we have arrived at the quaint little village of Dhokraha situated in West champaran district's Majhauli tehsil.

After alighting at Majhauli railway station, we took a bike ride to Dhokraha village which was nearly four kilometre away. While riding through the marketplace, spotting a lai and tilkut seller, we made a brief stop to try some of these winter special sweet treats. The genial vendor doled out a piece of firm and crisp tilkut. Made with sesame, jaggery and peanuts these thick brittle were quite tasty. He also had lai that was made of puffed rice.

Soon we resumed our journey and after a few minutes drive we reached our host Geeta ji's house. After the warm introduction, we decided to take a brief tour of the village with our young friend Kundan. While visiting the village temple, we found a bunch of kids playing cricket at the back side of the temple premise. It was such a pleasant and exciting scene that Anubhav couldn't prevent himself from joining them for some action.

One match down, some of the kids then accompanied us to these fascinating mud walled and thatched roof structures called baedis. They were the silos that are used for storing grains.

After returning, we accompanied Geeta ji to her backyard garden to pluck some vegetables for the meal preparation. The idea of eating freshly plucked vegetables gave us so much joy. We gathered some purple turnips, beetroot and tomatoes and headed to the open kitchen at the inner courtyard of the house. Geeta ji quickly stirred up some aloo gobhi bhaja and served it to us with dahi chura and jaggery. The home set curd and the aloo gobhi bhujia were divine.

Again we were back in the kitchen to get the lunch ready. With an effortless ease and a steady smile, Geeta ji whipped up a shalgam ki sabzi and kele ka kofta. We truly acknowledge the hard work that goes behind the meal preparation by womenfolks at each and households especially in the villages. It is a taxing task. Next were the turn of rice and crisp garai fish fry. Once they were ready we sat down for lunch. Along with the dishes mentioned above, we also had a chutney, ghee and saag. Everything was delicious but we especially loved the kele ka kofta. The freshness of the naturally grown vegetables made their mark.

It was truly a gratifying experience to taste this traditional meal that was prepared with native ingredients, techniques and loads of affection just left us overwhelmed.

VILLAGE Food in BIHAR- A PERFECT day Cooking, Eating, Drinking, Walking with locals in Vill Parsauna

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


In this special episode Anubhav Sapra travels to the village of Parsauna from Muzaffarpur, along with his mother on the holy day of Vasant Panchami to explore the local flavours mostly the festive time delicacies. Since it was festive time, we are excited to try some traditional festive time delicacies. After a pleasant winter morning drive, we reached the house of our gracious host Pradeep ji at whose place all the culinary actions for the day were about to unfold. We met their family who were so welcoming and generous that the place felt like home.

Pradeep ji gave a brief tour of his home that was built with traditional architectural wisdom. We then went to the backyard of the house where a makeshift kitchen had been arranged amidst the open green setting. The ladies of the house had gathered there to start with the breakfast preparation. In villages people use cow dung cakes as a fuel for cooking and they come in different shapes and sizes. It is an inexpensive source of fuel. Moreover the food prepared on it has earthy and smoky notes. With all ingredients arranged in place, they quickly began with the process. Sarita ji, our enthusiastic hostess, started with the malpuas which were followed by the folding and frying of matar kachoris. She then wrapped up this leg of the cooking by frying the vadas for the dahi vadas and the puris.

Soon the dishes were laid on the table and without much ado we dived into then because we have been hungry since a while. The puris were accompanied by a delicious aloo matar sabzi that had been prepared earlier. Everything was simply amazing but the thin and crisp malpuas were the clear favourite.

Post breakfast as promised Pradeep ji accompanied us to show how the local palm tree wine taadi is extracted from the tall trees. He took us to Amar Ji who was a professional taadi tapper. Amar ji got his tools ready and led us to an open place full of palm trees. He climbed up on a few of those trees and collected the sap. It was a risky affair because he wasn't using any protective gears. We tried the freshly extracted sap called neera that hasn't been exposed to much sunlight. It was sweet and refreshing. On being stored or left exposed to sunlight, it transforms into taadi, the palm wine.

From there we went on to take a brief stroll down the village. Here we chatted with some of the residents about their lifestyle and so on, then witnessed the milking of a cow, interacted with curious kids there and headed back to Pradeep Ji's place to check out the elaborate lunch preparation. We were fascinated to witness Sarita ji and the team of ladies zealously whip up three dishes- dal, aloo bhujia and stuffed gatte ki sabzi- so quickly. Now it was the turn of the litti and chokha which is Bihar 's most iconic dish. We saw how it is made from scratch and realised how elaborate the process was. Both the littis and the chokha were baked on the dung fire. We also saw how they were cleaned off the ash using a simple inventive technique.

Finally we wrapped up the cooking session with the thekuas, a popular sweet snack that is usually made with atta and jaggery or sugar. The mouth watering festive time spread consisted of litti, chokha, ghugni, chutney, rice, dal, gatte ki sabzi, tilauri and dudh pua. Everything was so tasty and hearty that we had a surfeit of it. What we enjoyed the most was the conversations over the meals. They gave us a sneak peak into the culture and traditions of this place.

In the evening it was time for us to leave. We conveyed our gratitude, bid goodbye to our brilliant hosts and departed with the promise to be back soon.

MOTIHARI Food Tour I PAANI FRY mutton + ISHTOO + PRESSURE Cooker COFFEE + Chhena MURKI + Rajbhog

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


In this episode we bring you a delightful gastronomic journey from the streets of Motihari in Bihar. Situated in East Champaran district of Bihar, it rose to prominence when Mahatma Gandhi sparked off the Champaran Satyagraha movement during the time of India's freedom struggle. With strong traditional roots, today, it is aspiring to attain the hallowed urban prosperity. To guide us with the exploration we were joined by Anubhav’s friend Rajesh Pandey.

Our first destination was a humble sweet shop where we wished to try the small cottage cheese based sweets called murki, for which Motihari is famous for. Luckily a fresh batch of murki was being made at their nearby workshop so we first checked out the process and then tried some fresh pieces. They were quite decent.

Continuing with the sweet journey, we reached Jagdish Mishtan Bhandar in Govindapur Bazaar. Their sweets are much loved by the residents. Here we tried a rajbhog and chenna gaja. The first one was a khoya stuffed rasgulla while the second one was a sugar syrup cooked chhena sweet.

En route to our next food stop, we stopped at Areraj to see the famous Ashokan Pillar and to pray at Someshwar Nath Mahadev Temple. In between we also paid a visit to Rajesh ji's home.

Then we reached Shree Vaishno Nashta Stall. At this busy eatery we savoured sattu ka sharbat, bhunja and tamatar chap. The former one is like a desi protein shake as sattu is made from Bengal gram. Mixed with onion, chillies, rock salt and cumin powder it tasted great. The bhunja and the tamatar chap were tasty as well.

The next food joint was Soni meat house. They are popular for two amazing mutton dishes named noon paani fry and mutton stew. The former was an incredible no oil mutton curry and the latter was a rich and robust mutton curry whose flavours and textures were also divine.

After those scrumptious fares, we arrived at a roadside coffee stall to energize ourselves with a hot cuppa. This stop turned out to be a super fascinating place because here the coffee was being made using a pressure cooker. Yes you heard it right. The vendor was using a pressure cooker that has been modified into a coffee maker machine to make frothy milky coffee. More than the coffee, it was this innovation that filled us with so much joy and pride.

It being late in the evening, we finally ended our tour with the customary paan. The flavours at Motihari were traditional, rustic and delicious. Thanks for joining us.

PATIALA Food Tour | Tasty CHANA KULCHA + Best Paneer Pakoda + FORMULA Chai + Patiala PEG

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


In today's food tour episode, we are going to check out the street scenario in the city of Patiala. Situated in the Southeastern part of the state of Punjab, Patiala has strong cultural and historical roots. The city is famous for Patiala jutti, Patiala salwar and Patiala peg. Talking about the street food over here, we can say that the city is a foodie's paradise because it has so much to offer. To guide us in this gastronomic journey we were joined by the young food blogger Divyam ( who is hugely fond of his city's food culture.

Our journey started with a simple breakfast of paratha and chai from the Harbans Dhaba, a favourite among the locals, who come to relish some tasty and affordable food. We tried their aloo anda paratha and gobhi paratha with masala chai. It was decent and filling. The sweet milky tea, fondly called the Formula chai was quite invigorating. This place is open 24x7 and gets really crowded during night.

From there we went to Patiala shahi lassi shop. This place with its contemporary interiors and vibes is famous for its sweets and most importantly lassi. They offer an amazing rage of lassi that includes the classics ones and fusion ones. We tried three kinds of lassi and a few of their popular sweets. Their lassi were phenomenal, especially the mango one. Among the sweets we liked gajar pak and chocolate burfi the most.

Next place in the tour was Malhotra sweets corner. We're there to try their hot selling paneer ke pakoda. As proclaimed by Divyam, it truly outstanding. The crisp exterior and the soft and succulent interior of the paneer pakoda made them one of the best snacks out there.

He then took us to Sadhu ram halwai for their khasta kachoris. It was just a room full of people, one of whom was doling out kachoris and samosas with aloo ki sabzi and imli pudina chutney. We had ordered a kachori and it was delicious. The outer part was crisp and flaky while the inner urad dal based stuffing was distinctly flavourful. The potato curry and the chutney simply enhanced it's irresistible taste.

After that hearty savoury snack we reached Charan juice and confectionery to try their fruit cream drink. It was a thick, creamy and super refreshing stuff that elated you with a different flavour in every sip.

Next we went on to have the most delicious chana kulcha in the town from this makeshift stall called Oxford kulche wala. As we couldn't find them out there because they had wound up for the day, Divyam took us to their home because he didn't want us to miss these kulchas whose fame has reached even Canada.The family welcome us and happily served us their famous chana kulcha which was loaded with all yummy stuffs.

Divyam then took us to one of his favourite places in the city i.e the Sahni dhaba whose butter chicken has a huge fan base. We opted for butter chicken, rara chicken, tandoori and missi roti. This butter chicken was quite different from the sweet and creamy version that we Delhiites are used to. The taste was a mix of spicy chicken curry and smooth butter chicken. We personally loved the rara chicken which was an extra spicy dhaba style chicken curry that had mutton mince in it.

From there we headed to Ambala Chaat for having chats and golgappe. But after going through the neat and crisp menu we ordered satrangi golgappa wondering about it's rainbow effect. It was actually a serving of seven different flavoured golgappa. We loved the riot of flavours and textures that filled our mouth and our heart.

Finally we ended the journey with the characteristics Patiala peg from Peddlers. It is actually an particular amount of liquor that is measured by holding the index, middle and ring finger together pitted against the wall of the glass.

This tour was quite and amazing experience with all the great food, the warm interactions and the happy vibes.

LUCKNOW Vegetarian Food Tour - Malai Paan + BASKET CHAAT + Matar + MAKHAN MALAI + KALI Gajar HALWA

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


In our journey to discover some of the tastiest street foods that India has to offer we found ourselves lost amongst the captivating aromas of kebabs, chat, samosa etc. and the royal glory of Uttar Pradesh’s capital Lucknow. Join us on this veg food tour as we take you through the irresistible options out here.

First Stop- Shukla Tea Stall
We began our day with some kadak chai, pakodi and samosa. The tea is thick and strong is truly what they call “malai maar ke”chai. The pakodi is served here only in the mornings, perfectly crispy and super fresh, these fritters are made with chickpea flour, onions and spinach. But we are living for the samosas served here. Honestly the slight sourness in the stuffing that comes from dried mango powder is truly unique to U.P. Even the shape of the samosa is not you run-of-the-mill triangle but a little more round which allows it to have just a little more stuffing.

Second Stop- Bajpayee Kachori Bhandar
The ultimate Khasta is served at this small shop along with chickpea and potato sabzi. The Khasta is stuffed with dals and is super crisp. We also tried the Kachori and Sabzi and a dry potato sabzi which was topped with mint. Each and every dish we tried was delicious!

Third Stop- Ram Asrey
Here we tasted the Malai Gilori or Malai Paan. It's just a layer of thick cream filled with khoya and dry fruits. It is sweet and very decadent.

Fourth Stop- Ram Asrey
This one was established in 1805 serving an amazing array of sweets. Their speciality is the Malai ki Gilori which is made from slow cooking buffalo milk. Another speciality is the Kaali Gajar ka halwa. The process of cooking this halwa is very long but there is another sweet dish which takes about two says to make. Dudhiya is one of the dishes that seems simple but has complex and time consuming method of cooking. Made with milk, clarified butter, sprouted wheat and dry fruits, this sweet was a super nutritious.

Fifth Stop- Netram Ajay Kumar
Serving classics like Kachori, jalebi and gulgule, this place has been in Aminabad since 1854. We got the Kachori Thali here which includes kachori, dry potato sabzi, pumpkin sabzi, raita, tamarind chutney, potato and pea sabzi, jalebi and gulgule. Everything on that plate was supremely delicious.

Sixth Stop- Jagdish Makhan Malai
Known as daulat ki chaat in Delhi, Malaiyo in Banaras and Makhan Malai in Lucknow. This is made from milk and cream and here they add some cardamom, pistachios and saffron. We also tried the Kesariya Doodh which is below the foamy layer of the Makhan Malai.

Seventh Stop- Royal Cafe
Here we ate a number of things. First was the Palak patta chaat which is a spinach leaf dipped in chickpea flour batter and fried then topped with yogurt, tamarind chutney green chilli chutney and chaat masala, it is super crispy and very flavourful. Then qe tried the nimbu matar, tikki and the famous basket chaat. The basket is made from fried potatoes and the chaat on the whole consists of 25 things in it. There's a different flavour in every bite.

Eighth Stop- Shukla Chaat House
Another name for the humble gol gappa, Batashe, is what we tried here. Here they are filled with matar and mint- imli water. Another dish here is Matara which are crisp and soft tikiya topped with coriander, lemon and crushed batashe for crunch.

Ninth Stop- Pandit Raja Ki Mashur Thandai
This shop has been there since 1936. Thandai is basically cold spiced milk. Here the milk is flavoured at least 18 spices which are put in keeping the weather in mind along with dry fruits too.

Tenth Stop- Chaurasiya Paan Bhandar
Final stop had to be for paan but not just any paan, Maghai Paan. This is made from a special leaf which is available only during the winter season. The speciality of this particular leaf is its texture, it just melts in the mouth.

World Famous CHAMPARAN MEAT CURRY aka Ahuna/Handi Meat - Story, recipe & tasting

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


► More street food in Bihar:


Bihar's non vegetarian cuisine is a delectable realm dominated by traditional and rustic style mutton, fish and chicken delicacies. Among the wide range of the nonveg dishes, the one dish that has been winning the hearts of meat lovers across the country is the Champaran Meat. The name suggests the belief that this rustic one pot delicacy with its roots in Ghorasharan, Bihar got popularised in and around Champaran. With its outstanding taste and texture profile, it is one of the star dishes of the state. At many places it is also known as Ahuna mutton or Handi mutton.

In today's episode we will tell you about our tryst with this toothsome mutton curry that is prepared in a sealed clay pot or vessel over embers. As per the traditional recipe, thoroughly mutton pieces are marinated in grated onion, green chillies, garlic and assortment of warming spices, salt and mustard oil and is then placed inside a clay pot called handi. The vessel is then sealed with a clay lid that has a tiny hole in it for the steam to escape. Just like all other dishes this recipe too undergoes some variations across regions within the state.

Our search for the dish led us to two most popular destinations that serve the same. One was Patna's Old Champaran Meat House and the other was Motihaari's Jaiswal Meat House. The first place is the most celebrated one because their version of the Ahuna mutton flavoured with their secret in-house spice mix is truly delicious. On reaching there, the gracious owner Gopal Khuswaha Ji showed us how it is prepared at his shop. The two indispensable parts of this dish is the clay handi and the embers. The process of its making was quite fascinating. After an impatient wait for 2 hours right from the beginning of the step, we finally tasted this divine delicacy. The meat was tender, juicy and rich with the taste of the masalas.

The second destination Jaiswal Meat House, is known to be the pioneer of this dish in Motihari. The whole lane where the shop is located is lined with shops selling just Ahuna meat. Jaiswal Meat House was abuzz with people. The sight of the whistling handis fascinated us and the aroma of mutton left us drooling. Here we tried the dish with bhunja. The flavours were slightly different from the previous destination because of the use of whole spices. But it was as good as it was.

With all the amazing flavours coming from the convergence of the influence of the clay pot, mustard oil, spices and embers it is a dish that deserves all the crazy love and attention.

Furthermore we would like to take the opportunity to thank all hosts for their generous guidance and support.

DHANBAD Food Tour I Pede Wali Chai & Nimki + Masala Muri + Litti Chokha + Meat Chawal + Chena Jalebi

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:



In today’s episode we are in the coal capital of India Dhanbad to explore the street food scenario out here with our gracious host Pallavi Choudhury. She is a social entrepreneur and lecturer and also an avid foodie who knows the best places in the city. Our focus was more on the old and iconic eateries that are frequented by a larger mass. Let take you through the list

The first stop is Ram Charitra Singh Tea Stall near Dhanbad Railway station. It is one of the oldest stalls in the locality whose space was alloted by the king of Jharia. Here we tried the tandoori chai with namkeen and it was quite invigorating.

The second stop was Mani's Cafe near Indian School Of Mines. This cheerful South Indian joint serves an eclectic menu. We tried their masala dosa and idli which is the top selling thing. The dosa masala was spicy yet delicious.

The third stop was Radha Sweets in Saraidhela. It is an old sweet shop that stocks Bengali sweets. At Pallavi's recommendation we tried the chhena jalebi, mitha samosa and gur sandesh. With a delicate and luscious mouthfeel, the former one was the best in the lot.

The fourth stop was Bombay Sweets and Snacks in Saraidhela. This spacious and swanky shop has an eating space too. We went for their much extolled raj kachori followed by amrit peda. The kachori was on a sweeter side but was quite refreshing and zesty.

The fifth stop was Gaya Singh Litti Dukan which is so legendary that the street over there is named after it. Their litti were truly amazing because of the softness and the well balanced sattu stuffing.

The sixth stop was Tiwari Hotel which is known for meals. We were there to try meat chawal which is different from other places because the meat is slow cooked over wood fired and the rice is the aromatic Gobindobhog variant.

The seventh stop was the Ganouri Tea stall in Bekar Bandh. It was recommended by one of the vendors. We tried the kulhad chai over here which had a nice aroma of burnt milk.

The eighth stop was Santosh Masala Muri Stall. With a special Muri masala from Kolkata, this snack was quite addictive.

The eight stop was Rajkumar Ber wala where we tried ripened ber with a powdered condiment made of the same.

The ninth stop was Frankie. We tried their Frankie roll with potato patty stuffing. It was a little tart and not that impressive.

The tenth stop was a gupchup stall in Bank more where we had a potato and black chickpea stuffed gupchup and it was super tasty.

The last stop was Snacks bar where we tried a soft and delicate gulab jamun. And the best thing was that it was optimally sweet.

CHANDIGARH FOOD Tour I Rara MUTTON + Chole BHATURE + Mix CHAAT + SIZZLER + CHAAP + GAJRELA

► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:


In January this year we travelled to the city of Chandigarh to explore the street food scene out there. Deemed as India’s first planned city, modelled by the renowned architect Le Corbusier, Chandigarh manifests itself a unique blend of urbane architecture and natural beauty. Let's see what flavours we discovered over here along with our gracious host Dr Avika Khawas from the organization Walk Around India.
We started the tour of the city's most happening destination i.e Sector 17 or Sector Satra as it is locally called. Our first destination was the iconic Indian Coffee House where we tried their classic veg cutlet, a classic fare that most of the regular visitors prefer when they drop in casually. Due to an affordable menu and an old world charm, this place draws a huge eclectic crowd.
The second destination Ghazal restaurant was again a renowned family dining place that has been around for a long time. The name refers to a popular genre of Indian music. So here you can enjoy your food listening to the soothing melodies of ghazal. We tried their mix sizzler which is one of their best selling dishes. Both taste wise and proportion wise it was great.
Our third destination was Gopal's in Sector 15, market. This place is known for the popular North Indian sweets and snacks. We tried their classic choley bhature and atta panjiri. The former dish was quite delicious and hearty.
While strolling down this busy general market place in search of more flavour we got attracted to a popcorn seller and that was our four destination. What caught our attention was the specially designed enclosed container inside which the treats were being freshly roasted. It was light and hearty.
Our fifth stop was a humble shakarkandi cart where a genial aunty was serving a quick chaat made of the same. The boiled and roasted shakarkandi topped with two basic chutneys and rock salt was fun.
After a short drive we reached our sixth destination Garg Chaat in Sector 23. The mixed chaat that we had ordered was served in a leaf bowl. The balanced use of different ingredients made it quite delicious. We were fascinated by the kala chana in it which was an unusual addition.
Next we had some fennel and cardamom flavoured tea at our seventh destination called Khokha which was a small yet popular stall in sector 9.
After the tea break we drove to the celebrated Pal Dhaba, our eighth food stop . As recommended by the genial and warm owner Pritpal ji, we tried their mutton rara. It was a rich, buttery and flavoursome mutton curry that had assorted mutton pieces and keema. This place is much celebrated for their non vegetarian fares.
From there we arrived at our ninth destination named Pic n Move in Sector 8 market complex. Here we decided to have some chicken shorba soup to further the digestion so that we can adjust a couple of more places before calling it a day.
Next we reached Panchkula where our tenth food stop was Naidu South Indian Food Centre. Avika told us that it is one of the best places in the area to have South Indian fare.The vada sambar that we tried was quite decent and value for money.
The eleventh destination over here was Ice Cream Dot Com, a place popular for desserts and soya chaap. We had ordered their malai soya chaap and it was brilliant.
The twelfth and final destination of the day was Chilli Chaats. It is a famous place for classic North Indian snacks and sweets. We tried their aloo tikki, paneer pakoda, jalebi and gajrela. Everything was yummy but it was the crisp and moist paneer pakoda that won our heart. Here we met one of our subscribers and all the heartwarming exchanges simply enhanced the eating experience.
It was indeed a day of gluttony but we were elated to experience the hospitable atmosphere and the outstanding flavours. We are extremely thankful to Avika khawas for her guidance.

UNSEEN Manipuri चुराकरण/मुंडन महाभोज FEAST with a Salty End I Black Rice Kheer + Govind Ji Temple

The series finale offers a heartwarming gastronomic experience in Imphal that isn't just about the delicious food.

On the last day of our Manipur tour, we aimed to have lunch at a specific spot. However, a private event for a toddler was taking place right across from our intended destination.

Driven by curiosity to witness the local culture, we approached the hosts and were blessed with an immensely touching gesture from the family. They warmly welcomed us to be part of their celebration and even permitted us to document the experience.

The feast was the best and it enriched us with a deeper understanding of the local cuisine.

Watch till the end to immerse yourself in this cordial, gracious and heartful encounter.


**Despite the ongoing ethnic conflict in Manipur, we made a conscious yet hard decision to proceed with our food video series from the state which was filmed between 30th Jan and 3rd feb 2023.

Our intention was to showcase the incredible warmth, love, kindness, camaraderie and enthusiasm we encountered during this immersive visit.

It's essential to acknowledge the complexities the state is going through, but we firmly believe in highlighting the genuine goodness of the people whom we met during this wonderful journey.

Throughout the five-day tour, we encountered a heartwarming display of hospitality, generosity and harmony. We want to reassure that our approach remains sensitive and respectful towards the ordeal being faced by the people of Manipur.**

KALIMPONG Food Tour, Part 1/3 I Classic Street Food of Kalimpong + Huge Home Cooked Nepali Food

Located in the state of West Bengal, Kalimpong is a dreamy hill station known for the beauty related to the views of the Teesta valley, the Shivalik ranges, old Buddhist monasteries, old markets and so on. In today's episode we bring you a delightful food experience from the 1st day of our visit to this charming place.

The first stop was Cafe Kalimpong which is renowned not only for its food but also for being a space to promote the rich history and unique culture of Kalimpong and the stories of its beautiful people. On the recommendation of the warm and genial owner, here we tried some of the street food special dishes from their eclectic menu. This included classics like momo, phambi, thukpa with matar, aalu dum and laphing. We also tried a brilliant pulled pork burger. As the flavours of the local dishes are concerned, they have tried to keep it as authentic as possible. This approach as well as the use of fresh locally sourced ingredients are the reason behind their great taste. Anyone willing to try Kalimpong's street food without the chaos in the streets can come and it here. Because of its apt location, it also offers a magnificent view of the city and the nearby villages.

The next destination was our homestay, Duke's Home. On reaching there we received a warm welcome from the beaming owner Ms. Duke. Since the festival of Dasai was round the corner, she had arranged for a traditional dance performance by the spirited kids from the neighborhood. After the cheerful and energetic presentation we joined them for some refreshment and heartwarming interaction. Soon it was time for dinner and we were surprised to be served with a grand Nepali spread consisting of Karchi Marchi, tamo ko achar, ningro,bhatmas, iskush ko monta, sisnu, gundruk, umarekyo methi etc. It was a truly overwhelming gesture from her. The food was homely and super gratifying. We appreciate the fact that all the dishes were thoughtfully chosen so as to introduce us to a plethora of flavours, some of which were very new to us. Overall we has a great start to our Kalimpong food journey.
