Whoever said Thalis are only veg simply didn’t know where to go. Also, those who think Maharashtrian food mainly consists of tindli and puran poli, and no meat, you’re in for a slurrpy surprise! In case you don’t already know, a Thali is basically the “All You Can Eat” version of a Desi Meal – complete with sabji, daal or curry, rice, bread and some sides like raita, papad, chutneys and achaar. Heres the Top Five Non Veg Thali Restaurants in Pune.
