If you are fond of food and drink, then you must try this Kachori of Prayagraj, such a taste that will be remembered for life.

The most historical and spiritual city of the country’s largest state i.e. Prayagraj. Today, let me introduce you to a place in the same city, which has ruled the hearts of common to special people of India. The name of many former prime ministers, film actors and missile man Kalam is also included in the list of its donors. The flavor here is such that it enters the heart through the tongue. It is said in Prayagraj that if you did not eat Sulaki kachoris while staying here, then Baba your stay in Prayagraj has become futile.

Recently, I got the opportunity to visit Prayagraj, the birthplace of great personalities like Mahamana Madan Mohan Malviya, Harbans Rai Bachchan and Jawaharlal Nehru. In fact, I have reached Prayagraj for coverage in connection with the murder of mafia don Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf. The habit of constantly searching for new, trying something new has led to this famous and old shop of Prayagraj. In conversation with many local people, we came to know about Sulaki’s almost 100 years old shortbread shop located in central Allahabad/Prayagraj. This famous shop of Sulaki Lal Shri Nath & Sons is situated at Sulaki Chauraha. Roaming around in the clean city of Prayagraj, I reached Sulaki’s shop, the time was about 11 in the afternoon. The crowd of people present there surprised me, because I thought there would be very few people at this time because Kachori is the morning breakfast. Despite being so crowded, its cleanliness impressed me a lot. The special thing is that the look of this shop is still the same as people had told about it earlier.

The different thing in the local cuisine of Purvanchal is that spices are used here, here health is given priority along with taste. On reaching the shop of Sulaki Kachori, it was found that Urad Dal Kachori made in desi ghee without onion and garlic. If we talk about a plate of kachoris, then there are 4 pooris with unlimited delicious desi ghee made potato pit, dum potato, jack fruit vegetable, potato brinjal vegetable and bottle gourd raita. The special thing is that instead of fancy cutlery, handmade biodegradable plates made of desi leaves were being used to serve all these. Here, along with the taste of the tongue, care is also taken of the nature. This is the favorite breakfast here, which is seen more in the crowd of local people. Maan liked the very first morsel, the taste of vegetable along with hot kachoris is such that he cannot forget it even after forgetting it. Jackfruit curry which is my favorite was really so good that words fall short. Incredible taste. Delicious!

Kachoris and vegetables are available in every corner of the country, but you can eat the Kachoris found in Prayagraj only here. Its specialty is that here pulses are stuffed in it and it is fried in pure desi ghee. The whole plate does not contain any body harming item. The taste is such that the stomach is full, but not fixed. You can have sabzi and raita any number of times at this reputed shop. After finishing one plate, my attention was drawn to the jalebis made from desi ghee. On asking the price, it was found that it is Rs 400 per kg, then did the test be done immediately.

After performing the Pet Puja, I met Aman Gupta (the sixth generation in the family business founded by Budhiram Halwai), the operator of this wonderful establishment. So my first question was that 4 Kachoris for Rs.120 in Prayagraj are usually much more expensive than normal, so he told that he does not want to compromise on the quality of his food, because customer’s trust is everything for him. He said, cleanliness and cleaning are of high standard during the entire process, while the FSCCI certificate and other standards are fully followed here. He told that the timing of this 150+ year old restaurant is from 7 am to 10 pm on all the seven days. During this, Kachori is available throughout the day, while Jalebi is available only from 7 am to 11 am. Aman Gupta told that when Amitabh Bachchan came to contest the election of MP from Allahabad, he started the election campaign by eating Kachori from his shop. He said that whether it was Atal Bihari Vajpayee or Abdul Kalam, everyone had specially ordered and eaten these kachoris when they came to Prayagraj. I am a person of exploration and fond of finding something new outside, eating. I rarely go out to any restaurant or hotel twice, but I can go back to Sulaki Lal Shree Nath & Sons, especially for their jackfruit sabzi.At last I would also like to say in Allahabadi style that come to Prayagraj and If you did not eat Sulki’s Kachoris, then your visit to Prayagraj was in vain.
