Banaras Diaries: Food, Faith & Life
Hello, Pranam, Sat Sri Akal, Aadab dosto… So here you are, reading my chatpata, mazedaar blog 😌 Today, let’s talk about Banaras — and the one thing without which Banaras feels incomplete… Banaras ki CHAAT 🤌 Bro, honestly, you will fall in love with the food .

People here don’t use onion or lehsun in their food, and still the kachori tastes so good that even I was surprised. I never thought kachori without onion could be this tasty — but Banarasi kachori proved me wrong . One thing they use a lot is black chana . Now obviously, people like us can get bored eating chana every day 😅 And trust me, after 3 days, I didn’t even touch chana for the next one whole week . I also tried really hard to find a good Banarasi chai . I went to almost every chai wala in every lane, but somehow, I was disappointed every single time. But… let it be . It’s Banaras — everythin...
