Bhojohori At Esplanade

Visited because I was craving luchi and mangsho, and they didn't disappoint. The prawn malaikari and basanti polao was excellent as well and so was the vegetable cutlet, rabdi and chutney. The staff were really nice, but they missed an item from our order while taking the order but made sure we receive it asap when informed.

Bhojohorir Veg Thala at Bhojohori Manna This elaborate Bengali vegetarian thali has Luchi, chholar dal, rice, shukto, kolmi shaak , postor borar jhal, alu jhurjhuri ,Tomato-khejur chutney, Rosogolla and Mishti doi. The story of Bhojohori Manna began out of a garage space at Ekdalia, Kolkata in March 2003. Five friends from diverse backgrounds with no formal F & B training but having a passion for food and people, reckoned from their own personal experiences that there was a vacuum in Kolkata for simple 'home style' Bengali food. The name Bhojohori Manna was chosen from a popular Bengali film song rendered by the legendary singer Manna Dey. The humorous track "Ami Sri Sri Bhojohori Manna..." revolves around a widely travelled cook who returns to his native land with a signature culinary style. The business model was inspired by the charming old-world concept of 'pice hotels' and moulded to the requirements of the day.

Amazing food! They give very small servings and you have take multiple so the price becomes like a normal restaurant. But you taste the real taste of Bengali cuisine. I highly recommend the Mutton Jhol. Dab chingri was also nice. Papda fish was very nice. I had the sorshe(mustard) gravy with it. But it was a bit pungent for my taste but I'm sure that's how it is authentically supposed to be. The vegetarian posto Bora (fried) and posto torai was very nice. They make the food in a central kitchen and just heat it in their restaurant branches so the service is really quick.
