I am an intrepid traveller. Travelling has been my passion since school days. Hailing from the steel city of Rourkela in Odisha, I always had an opportunity to plan out my holidays with my family to exotic destinations that are rich in history and heritage in India. Looking back, I have also taken up trekking in Chauragarh hills of Pachmarhi, Shatrunjaya Hills of Palitana, Vaishno Devi or the Muktinath temple in Mustang Valley in Nepal and Lalang Waterfall in rainforests of Tioman Island in Malaysia. I have penned down the Odisha destinations in Pick2Move-India Travel planner brought out by Sampan Media Limited, New Delhi. I have compiled a travelogue themed- “Journeys across India” published by Best Books, Kolkata. I generally take up travel to pen down travelogues, know the art and craft of the faraway lands and of course, I do travel reporting for leading English dailies of India.

Street food in Pushkar


Dining out in Pushkar

The holy town of Pushkar lives up to the reputation of not only being a revered citadel of faith but has some wonderful culinary treats on offer. For both global and domestic travellers, the charm of eating your way through the streets of Pushkar is quite tempting. One can dig into the lip-smacking sweets on offer. On the way to Brahma temple, there are scores of shops selling a variety of savouries. One can gorge on Jodhpuri Mirchi Vada or the palak vada popular as street food.

The town is famed for its delicate Malpua that is an eternal favourite sweet delight. There is another attraction for those who wish to pamper their sweet tooth. One should not miss out on lassi churned out from buffaloes’ milk. For those looking ahead to bite into fast food watching the sun setting on the banks of Pushkar Lake, there are a number of cafes overlooking Jaipur Ghat that are favourite haunts for overseas travellers. There is Sunset Cafe and Restaurant where one can savour hot Momos or noodles. Besides, for lunch one can go for typical Rajasthani meals including Gatta ki curry and Dum Aloo with jeera rice.
