Bishnupur- Not only City of Temples but also a gastronomical destination too

 Usually, when I head towards any destination I look for things that I can eat. Yes, a holiday is not only about going around but also filling up my tummy. We reached Bishnupur during the Pujas. Durga Puja is the time when you can cheat and eat every day. Trust me, you can. On the second day of our visit, we found a restaurant or pice hotel to be specific- Monalisa Hotel and Restaurant. It was Dashami. The place was crowded during lunchtime. We managed a 3seats for ourselves. Before we could order anything there were 3 plates in front of us. Rice, curry, dal, alu bhaja, postor bora. So, this is compulsory. The option that you will get is in the non-veg items. There are varieties of fish, chicken, egg, and mutton. You need to decide quickly and order. Trust me all of the items were delicious. And the postor bora is to die for. Most importantly all of these came at a pocket-friendly price too. 

We stayed at a hotel- Hotel Annapurna where we were offered a buffet breakfast. The usual part of a continental breakfast was nice as usual but the additional specialty was the sweetmeats that we had. Penra from Chatna, Monohara, Misti Doi, Murki, Mihindana- it was an array of sweets. Leaving aside luchi and bread we dived into these items every day. 

Last but not least on our way back we packed a bunch of these delicacies. 

Our 3 days trip was gastronomically satisfying :-)
