So, I spent the whole of last week touring northern parts of India - Delhi, Chandigarh, Shimla, Kasauli and Manali to be precise. While the weather and hilly roads messed up my system, I loved gorging on all of the street food available. It wasn't something that you see typically down south - Paani Puris, Bhel Puri, Idlis, etc. and spanned across a lot more dishes. So here's just a photo blog from some of the food sightings up north. Enjoy! :)
P.S. Do excuse the image quality. All the pictures were taken on my phone with shivering hands.
 |
| Delicious Aloo Tikkis at Kasauli - Perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. |
 |
| Gulab Jamuns at Narinder Sweet House in Kasauli that are world famous! The jamuns were soft, warm and delicious! |
 |
| Himachal is a great place for Indianized sandwiches. They put anything between bread and serve it. This was a Samosa burger. Which was soft, crispy, spicy and yummy! :) |
 |
Bread Pakoras are something to fall in love with. Sandwiches stuffed with spicy masala potatoes and veggies and a big slab of paneer in between are coated in Besan and deep fried. Yum!
|
 |
| You get different versions of Pav Bhaji all across India. This one was a lot spicier and had lesser onions and more potatoes. |
 |
| Apparently, my love for Aloo Tikkis can never end. I spotted some more, and I ate some more. |
 |
| We'd like one spicy chicken, please. Grilled, not hung. |
 |
| You'll discover plenty of Gulab Jamun guys every 200 metres on Mall Road in Manali, and I insist that you try these wonderful jamuns! |
 |
| And finally, I managed to find Tuna Kimbap in Manali, for only Rs.150 as well. De-lish! |
So, that's some of the pictures I managed to shoot and try during my trip up north. Is there any delicacy that I may have missed? Do respond in your comments below! :)
