“People eat to live but Punjabis live to eat” this is how intellectuals have described Punjabis in one line. And guess what? We are proud of it. Well honestly life without good food is like samosa without aloo, Bhature without Chole, Lassi without Makhan (Butter), Chicken without Butter, wait. Is it only us or are you also feeling hungry? Oh yes, these examples are enough to make anyone hungry.
You know it is a sin if you talk about Punjabi rich cuisine and not mention the City Amritsar. The holy land where golden temple shines bright and over 1 lakh people visit daily are blessed with so many food delicacies too.
Some restaurants like Kanha Sweets Amritsar, Kesar da Dhaba, Bharawan Da Dhaba are over 50 years older. Your Amritsar trip is incomplete if have not tasted the gourmets served by them.
If the first meal of the day goes well then the day goes well. So if you are in Amritsar and want to spend a day well, start by having breakfast at super famous Kanha sweets which are decades old. Their famous puri Chole/Chane will set off your day in the right direction.
