A Foodie's Journey to Kolkata:

Kolkata's culinary magic doesn't stop at Bengali cuisine. The city has its own version of biryani, famous for its delightful aroma and the addition of flavorful potatoes. Places like Arsalan and Aminia serve up this scrumptious dish. Kolkata is also where Indian-Chinese cuisine first took root, with spots like Golden Joy offering a taste of this unique fusion. And let's not forget the iconic Kathi rolls, invented right here and available at places like Nizam's and Kusum Rolls. Street food is a big deal too, with Jhalmuri's pani puri being a crowd favorite.
