Overview

The tour will begin at 2:00 PM, and the first stop is Kashi Chat. After exploring the ghat, your guide will take you to try the first dish, in our next destination, Madhur Jalpan grid, where we will try Pori Sabzi, a street, poori sabzi. Hot and crispy poori or kachori is stuffed with dal and served with spicy potato gravy.

Then, we will move forward; it is time to taste some of the famous sweets of Varanasi. Try Jalebi, a treat made from deep-fried batter. Then, taste shahi turka, an Indian bread pudding, at the shop. Both food items are served crispy and hot, with lots of syrup. Afterward, you will be served a lassi in an earthenware glass at the Baba lassi shop. Lassi is a yogurt drink. Flavored with cardamom and garnished with pistachios, fresh cream, and a few drops of rose water. You can also try several other Indian sweets.


Varanasi is famous for aloo tikki chaat, potato patties with chickpea curry garnished with green chutney, and pani puri, a hollow snack stuffed with different filings. Finally, you can try the best chewing paan in Varanasi after tasting all these delicious street foods.
