Beskrivelse
Få klar til Kolkata bedste mad tur. Hils din guide og tag metroen op til byens intellektuelle hjerte. Her er den bengalske revolutionære fighter Subhas Chandras Bose mere berømt end Gandhi og folket er lidenskabeligt om deres rettigheder og uafhængighed, for ikke at nævne deres mad. Aftenen begynder i en lille gade sælger, der blander sammen en af distriktets bedste tropiske damer. Derefter vil du hoppe fra sted til sted og smage nogle fine bengalske retter - kremer dækket af duftende kokosmælk curry, løg bahjis fra en revolutionerende mad stand, saftig mutton kosha og en række bengalske slik for blot at nævne nogle få. Afslut på et af de ældste koloniale kaffehuse i Kolkata, hvor nærliggende universitetsstuderende går ned for intellektuelle diskussioner.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Hils din guide uden for port 4 af 'Esplanade metrostation' og hoppe på en kort togtur op til et kvarter lidt besøgt af udlændinge men kendt af lokalbefolkningen for sin mad. Når du lander, vil du dykke lige ind med en eksotisk lasse fundet hos en lokal gadesælger, før du hopper ind i en lille joint, der har slået op nogle af de bedste mutton kosha curries i Kolkata i mere end et århundrede. Din guide vil afsløre historier om gamle Calcutta.
Besøg Kolkatas mest berømte lokale fisk- og skaldyrsrestauranter, hvor du vil prøve deres signaturrejer dækket af chingri kokosflødesauce og en læskende karryfiskmousse dampet i et bananblad. Efter at have forladt vil du klatre ombord på en af de gamle richshaws, det eneste sted, hvor disse trævogne stadig findes i Indien, og tage en kort rundtur i området på vej til det næste foodie-stop. Slug på en reje kabiraji ved et legendarisk køkken startet af en skotte i det 19. århundrede. Kolkata kan virke travl, men din guide vil tage dig med på en gåtur ned gennem et fredeligt distrikt og pege på templer og det lokale liv undervejs. Mens du slynger dig baggaderne i det gamle Kolkata, vil du prøve velsmagende lækkerier fra byens mest berømte løgbhajis til friske gramsalater lavet af urter og bælgfrugter.
Vi vil stoppe ved College Street, hvor universitetsstuderende passerer ved hæle af skolebøger sælgere, på vej hjem fra foredrag. Drop ind i et lokalt café for at smage en berømt kokos sherbet drik og derefter smage Bengali delikatesser i en nærliggende slikbutik. I den forsvundne storhed af et gammelt kolonialt café, hvor eleverne er optaget af at debattere, hvirvler loftsfans over hovedet, og servitører serverer kaffe i traditionelt tøj. Dette er ikke kun en foodie tur, det er en tur ind i hjertet af historiske Kolkata.

Avik was very professional and took us to some interesting food joints which we would not have tried otherwise. He planned the tour perfectly. Strongly recommend him..
One of the best food tours you will ever do. Taste everything of what Kolkata has to offer from street drinks to restaurants that have been operating for generations. Best part is the guide Avik. His passion is truly shown by not just through food but his passion and love for his city. The stories and interesting facts of Kolkata through his local perspective, couldn’t beat that. Highly recommend to all and if you don’t end up in a food coma at the end, you’re truly missing out.
I had an amazing experience exploring Kolkata through this food tour. Everything was organized perfectly, and I got the chance to try authentic local dishes that I would have never discovered on my own. A special thank you to my guide, who made the whole experience even better. He was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about sharing the local culture and food scene. He made me feel comfortable from the beginning and explained the stories behind the dishes and places we visited, which made the tour much more meaningful. This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to India. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience the real local food culture and create great memories. Thank you for such a wonderful experience, and I hope our paths cross again someday! 😊🙏🍛✨
This was a very good tour. The food was delicious and safe. There was also a lot of history and culture. I loved walking through the old town and gave interactions with the locals. Avik is incredibly knowledgeable about food history. I recommend.
Avik was an amazing guide! As a chef who has had a few food tours in other parts of India, I appreciated the variety, the food history and company. I highly recommend this tour in Kolkota.
Incredible experience with Avik Mitra! The best way to try street food safely. I even got to take home some delicious food souvenirs. I’ll definitely be back!! Thank you, Avik!
We had a fantastic time. Avik was brilliant, knew lots of history and culture and adapted the tour to our tastes. Highly recommend to anyone.
The time we met our guide he was very helpful because we couldn’t find the meeting place he came to find us, and offered us cold drinks, he went out his way to make sure we were having a good time, he’s very knowledgeable about the history of Kolkata also besides all the food and drinks that we tasted he gave us extra snacks to take for later. He is an amazing guide who enjoys his job. Thanks for the amazing time we had in our tour.
The guide - We planned the tour in Kolkata as the city can be new and confusing. However, Avik's communication since the beginning put us at ease. He was masterful in the way he conducted the tour. He also ensures to transform his style based on nationalities of the guests. The pace - it was well paced. There was enough eating and walking to make sure we did not feel over-stuffed. The food - it was delicious as well, which was expected. From masala filled curries, to fried fritters and refreshing cooling drinks which were topped off with Bengali sweets - it was everything we expected and more. Over all - Highly recommended. Be ready to walk and eat a lot!
Had a wonderful experience on our Kolkata food tour! Our tour guide took us to all the local spots, was so knowledgeable about the city and its history. He made sure he selected the most unique spots and was super kind to our little Alfonso!! We look forward to another tour with him again :)
