Kolkata is often known as the hub of culture and creativity but another thing that it is widely popular for is the impeccable food that it has to offer to the world. The food scene in Kolkata is contemporary and yet diasporic and the range of cuisines that are available in the city, starting from roadside stalls to the heavy-weight five stars is just unimaginable.
The city is definitely every foodie’s delight and recently as per the international website ‘Eater’ it is one of the 11 culinary destinations around the world and should be explored by every foodie in 2023. The other cities that were featured on this grand list were Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), Manila (Phillipines), Guatemala City (Guatemala), Sardinia (Italy), Halland (Sweden), Asheville (North Carolina), Dakar (Senegal), Cambridge (England), Tamaki Makaurau (New Zealand) and Albuquerque (New Mexico).
The international website took to it’s official Instagram page to share this news with the world. The announcement read, “In picking 2023’s dining destinations, we thought not just about hit lists and must-try dishes (although those are important, too), but also the aspects of meals that make them feel immersive: the people, environment, culture, and history behind foods that force us to pause and tempt us from pre-planned paths.”
“These 11 destinations encourage us to not just stuff ourselves until we’re full, but to eat, drink, and travel fully,” the post further read.
