Bareilly Bites: Ditch the Restaurant, Hit the Streets!
Okay, folks, let's talk Bareilly. Forget those fancy restaurants for a sec, because the real magic happens on the street corners. Trust me, my tastebuds are still doing a happy dance. If you're heading to Bareilly, or even if you live here and haven't explored the street food scene, you're missing out!
First Stop: Seekh Kebabs, the King of Bareilly
Seriously, these kebabs are legendary. Minced meat, a secret spice blend, and that smoky char from the grill? Forget about it! Each bite is pure heaven. You have to try them. I’m talking about places like Taj Kabab, Afsar Bhai Kebab Corner, and Raju Kabab – those guys know their stuff.
Warm Up with Nahari, a Hug in a Bowl
When the evenings get chilly, you need Nahari. Slow-cooked meat stew, rich and fragrant. It’s like a warm hug for your stomach. Zakhira Nihari, Delhi Nihari Centre, and Nazeer Foods? Those are the spots to hit.
Crispy Aloo Tikki? Yes, Please!
Aloo Tikki is everywhere, but Bareilly does it differently. Crispy, golden potato patties, spiced just right, and those chutneys? Forget about it! The Chaat Bazar, Chaat Sarovar, and Hungers Night are where it's at.
Pani Batashe: Flavor Explosion!
Prepare for a wild ride with Pani Batashe (or Pani Puri, if you prefer). Crispy shells, spicy water, tangy fillings – it’s a flavor party in your mouth. Every vendor has their own twist, so it’s a fun adventure. The Chaat Bazar, Chaupati Chaat Choice, and Chaman Fast Food are solid bets.
Chaat Time! Aloo and Papdi, Oh My!
Bareilly's chaat scene is insane. Aloo Chaat, Papdi Chaat… you name it, they’ve got it. Look back at the tikki and pani batashe spots for some good places to start.
Samosas: Golden Triangles of Joy
You can’t go wrong with samosas, right? But Bareilly's versions? Perfect. Crispy, spiced potato and peas... simple, but so good. Bareilly Da Samosa Junction, Chotey Lal Samose Wale, and Gupta Sweets are your friends here.
Jalebi: Sweet, Sticky, and Amazing
Got a sweet tooth? Get some Jalebi. Crispy, syrupy spirals of pure bliss. Deepak Sweets and Ajanta Sweets N Bakes? They've got you covered.
Biryani: Aromatic Goodness
Biryani’s a big deal, and Bareilly nails it. Fragrant rice, tender meat, and spices that’ll make you swoon. Check out Chicken Biryani, Al-Nawab Chicken Biryani Corner, and Tasini Saqlaini Tasty Biryani.
Green Goodness: Hare Chane ki Tikki
This one’s a local gem. Green chickpea tikkis, healthy and delicious. I couldn’t find specific places, but ask around – someone will point you in the right direction.
Momos: Steamed and Savory
Momos are everywhere, but Bareilly has some awesome spots. Kingdom of Momos, Momo Hut, and MomoMia Rampur Garden Bareilly? They're worth a try.
Get Out There and Eat!
Seriously, Bareilly's street food is a must-try. Each bite tells a story. Go explore, get your hands dirty, and enjoy the ride. Trust me, you won’t regret it!
