I was wondering how this run down looking place was rated this highly rated and wasn't really planning to visit it. But given it was one of the only few vegetarian restaurants near the lake, we decided to try it. I am glad we did so, because the food was the best Punjabi food I've had in a while. The chef is punjabi and you're sure to get a large scoop of desi ghee in your parathas. You can customize pretty much everything in your meal and can enjoy a nice conversation with the chef along with some delicious hot food.
Undoubtedly the finest street food you can find in Kodaikanal. Absolutely impressive. The proprietor of this establishment is an incredibly kind, affable, and joyous individual. He remained true to his reputation by suggesting the finest dishes available. Even though we initially intended to have Maggie for one last time before departing Kodaikanal, the exquisite flavor of the masala Maggie convinced us to also sample the aloo tikki chat, as per the owner's suggestion. Believe us when we say that it was the most delightful thing we have ever tasted. An added advantage is that this eatery is entirely vegetarian, specializing in authentic North Indian dishes. If you have a preference for pure vegetarian North Indian cuisine, you should absolutely give these dishes a try. I wholeheartedly endorse this establishment and will certainly make a return visit during my next trip to Kodaikanal.
Punjabi Tadka In Kodai
As you search around Kodaikanal for places to visit and encapsulate your eyes with greenery you taste buds deserve some attention apart from all that chocolate.
We found this food joint next to Kodai lake(Punjabi Tadka).
Obviously we were looking for pure vegetation food. Place doesn't look fancy , it's humble shop with a great chef. Owner runs the shop who happens to be from Delhi.
First we tried pani puri which made us to visit the shop again in the evening. We had samosa and PavBhaji.
My wife loved Samosas and I must say PavBhaji tasted heavenly. All the melting butter and beautifully cooked Bhaji. I wish i had bigger belly to eat more.
Guess what, we went again there to eat more.
Today's order was panner and aalu Prantha.
Prantha was stuffed with extra panner and cooked with desi ghee. Uncle made sure that there was no compromise in adding ghee. topped up with curd, pickle and chilli chutny. Food tasted better along with his sweet conversation.
I'll be visiting him again tomorrow.
Following a delightful boating session on the scenic Kodaikanal Lake and a bout of street-side shopping, we paused for a swift refreshment. Our selection included Maggi and Aloo Tikki, both of which proved to be delectable. Adding to the charm, the cafe's owner exhibited remarkable warmth and kindness. Without a doubt, this spot near Kodaikanal Lake is a must-visit, offering a perfect culmination to your visit.
Went there by seeing the reviews on Google.
One of the best places to have North Indian food. Very good taste, perfect quality and sufficient quantity as well. Uncle who runs the shop is very supportive and friendly. He will regularly ask you if the taste is okay, any modifications are needed and will be happy to help wherever required.We tried veg momos, golgappe, maggi and fries, all were very tasty. Top place to be at if you are at kodai.Thanks again uncle for help, if you are reading this.
