Lunch At The World’s Largest Community Kitchen

Punjab

The gleaming spires of the Golden Temple are, perhaps, the most evocative symbol of the state of Punjab. The ancient city of Amritsar derives its identity and energy from this place of worship that has witnessed every epic moment and upheaval in the history of the state. Today, the Golden Temple is a place of solace and serenity, with the lilting sound of kirtans reverberating in the air, and the faith of thousands giving it a deeply spiritual character. Outside this oasis of tranquillity is chaotic, colourful Amritsar, beckoning with its love of the good life and good food. The food of Amritsar is not to be missed, whether the hot-outof-the-tandoor rotis and ghee-lashed dal makhni at Kesar da Dhaba, chhole-kulche everywhere, sweet lassi, or a full langar meal at the Golden Temple—the world’s largest community kitchen.
