The dripping Roshogolla, thick Misti Doi, innumerable varieties of Sandesh, mouthfuls of Rasmalai, unmatched Rajbhog and the sweet Payesh; it is impossible to come to and not head for a sweetshop. Though these sweetmeats are found practically everywhere in Kolkata, Balaram Mullick and Radharam Mullick are nothing short of a brand when it comes to sweets in Kolkata.
Kolkata's culture of Tea can be aptly observed by just one visit to this historical place. While their tea, which comes in different 'bhaanr' (earthen cup) sizes is the absolute best, this isn't the only reason why Balwant Singh Eating House is so well loved. A unique offering called the doodh cola is available here, which is cola married to milk in a most joyous union. One of a kind!
If you have a pav bhaji craving while you're in Kolkata, this is where you should be heading to! Mayaram's makes one of the best pav bhajis in all of Kolkata.They are served in sizeable earthen glasses and are absolutely great on a Kolkata afternoon, before and after those shopping sprees.
This person, who is found on Camac Street, somewhere between Pantaloons and St. Xavier's, has the most low key establishment and he keeps a box of dry ice near his basket of yum to stuff his delectable kulfis in. The close proximity to a lot of colleges ensures a steady flow of yummy street food at all times. We pick the Mango, Sitaphal and the Cheeku kulfi to be our favourites.
