My hunt for finding the most interesting food brought me to this popular place in Connaught Place area of New Delhi which is serving one magnificent platter to celebrate the World’s Largest Democracy in the world – India & its election season!
And to do so it has launched a huge platter called “The Election Thali” that is India shaped platter serving dishes from 28states of India! What’s more is that the thali weighs 10.5 kilos and has some of the most popular dishes that we find all over the country. The thali has several dishes from the north-south-east-west and center including -
Galouti Kebabs from Uttar Pradesh,
Bati chokha from Bihar,
Momos from the Eastern Sisters,
Prawn curry from Goa,
Dum Biryani from Hyderabad,
Dhokla from Gujarat and
The classic Maharashtrian tiffin or dabba
This thali is quite blend in taste with 28 dishes in it & is priced at ₹1999 for veg and ₹2299 for Non veg! Interestingly any number of people can eat it but thali won’t get refilled once your food is over. This was launched on April 11th (as told by café owner)
I would definitely not be able to eat the whole thing alone. I’m always amazed at how many different dishes are usually served at the same meal in India, but this one managed to surprise me even more.
I think that this is the craziest way of serving food I have seen so far hahah
Absolutely @BorrisS they have been put up basis the states. It’s a delight to taste so many states on a single table. I’m laughing so hard thinking an image of you eating chicken korma and chicken curry since it’s too spicy and infused with so many spices so glad at the same time knowing that you have tasted our Punjabi delights !
@Explore_Keshav lovely post . Even I came across this post in Instagram posted in some foodie page but I was unaware of all the details that you provided.
