Amritsar Food Walk

 

About this Activity


"Food, in the end, in our own tradition, is something holy. It's not about nutrients and calories. It's about sharing. It's about honesty. It's about identity."

A unique cuisine with the tastes, flavours and spices, with its tang and the zest is one of the prime features that sets India apart from the world. Powered by the ancient Indian ideology of 'Atithi Devo Bhava', every Indian welcomes guests with open arms and treats them to the best. Here, in the Guru di Nagri or Guru's city of Amritsar, you can join the crowds as one of their own, walk with the locals, learn about the culture and history and taste their cuisine as the locals do.

This food and indulge trail through Amritsar takes you to the langar or the community kitchen of the Golden Temple and the Grand Old Market, lets you into some trade secrets and gives you a taste of the centuries old recipes that are still reverently followed by the locals and fellow Punjabis. You will hit the streets of Amritsar in all its glory of the evening lights and crowds, starting with the Old Market with its over 3000 shops, some of them aging over 100 years. Visit kite shops, spice centres and tea shops, watch crowds milling in and out of every shop and shelter there. 

Dive into shops as you walk along and taste lip-smacking snacks that are specialities of Amritsar. The kachoris, puris, khajoors and the national drink of Punjab, the frothy, buttery lassi! Yum! Send your taste buds to bliss, tantalize them with exotic flavours that only North Indian cuisine can offer. A food trail through Amritsar is never complete without tasting its fish and chicken varieties. While the initial part of the tour takes you through the Old City, you will also visit the new city for its famous dhabas, to get a taste of the traditional Indian ice cream. 

With a journey through the history of the city, its culture and the food, this trail leaves you with a happy feeling, a lighter spirit and a very satisfied tummy. Bustle up and grab your chance at this gastronomic journey.
