Authentic
Bengali
Cuisine
!!!!!
Bengali
food
is
one
cuisine
which
would
suit
any
taste
bud.
Its
light
on
stomach
&
heavy
on
flavours,
which
will
make
you
crave
for
it
again
&
again.
The
list
of
delicacies
in
Bengali
cuisine
are
across
boundaries.
On
our
recent
trip
to
Shantiniketan
,
we
planned
to
pay
a
visit
to
"Borishaler
Ranna
Ghar"
on
31
Dec
2021
for
lunch,
which
is
quite
famous
for
its
Bengali
food.
It
was
approximately
15
kms
from
Goalpara
where
we
were
staying
put.
The
visit
was
definitely
worth
it
&
we
thoroughly
enjoyed
our
food
here.
Heres
what
we
ordered
:-
1.
Veg
Thali
:
Comprised
of
Plain
Rice,
Ghee,
Dal,
Shukhto
(made
of
veggies
including
Bitter
Gourd,
Raw
Banana,
Pumpkin,
Potatoe,
Masala
Vadi),
Dhokar
Dalna
(made
of
potatoes
&
cubes
made
of
Chana
Dal),
Tomato
Chutney,
Aalo
Bhaja
(thin
strips
of
Potatoe
deep
fried).
Each
dish
was
a
treat
in
itself.
The
thali
was
sumptuous
&
Shukhto
&
Dhokar
Dalna
was
full
of
flavours.
Food
was
very
light
on
stomach,
but
no
compromise
on
taste
there.
2.
Mutton
Kasha
:
A
preparation
of
Mutton
which
is
dry
in
texture.
The
dish
was
extremely
flavouful.
The
mutton
was
very
tender
&
cooked
perfectly.
Delicious
indeed.
3.
Bhetki
Paturi
:
A
variety
of
fish
named
"Bhetki"
fillets
prepared
with
mustard
&
other
condiments
&
wrapped
in
Banana
Leaf,
which
is
then
steamed.
Unique
flavours
&
tasty
enough.
The
Ambience
too
was
nice
&
dinky.
The
owners
have
made
an
endeavour
to
give
the
restaurant
a
village
touch,
with
the
dining
hall
replicating
a
mud
house
with
rural
paintings
on
the
wall
&
thatched
roof
on
the
ceiling.
It
was
pretty
pleasant.
A
special
mention
of
the
service.
Only
ladies
serve
here.
We
were
being
served
by
a
lady
named
"Tulsi"
who
was
so
congenial
&
warm.
She
made
sure
that
our
bellies
are
filled
to
the
brim.
Excellent
hospitality.
Loved
the
service
here.
They
have
displayed
few
local
artefacts
&
other
items
on
sale
just
outside
the
dining
hall,
which
the
ladies
would
love
to
shop
on.
There's
a
Sweets
counter
as
well,
which
sells
Bengali
Sweets.
Since,
our
stomachs
were
already
spilling,
we
were
not
in
a
position
to
try
the
sweets.
Overall
a
memorable
experience.
Since
we
went
on
31st
Dec,
it
was
slightly
crowded
&
hence,
there
was
a
waiting
period.
Do
visit
here.
Its
strongly
recommended.
Hope
the
review
helps.
