If Delhi is famous for Chor Bazaar and Parathawala Galli for its lip-smacking vegetarian and non-vegetarian hors de oeuvres, then Kolkata is proud of Dacre’s Lane.
Anyone is bound to wonder why is there always a mad rush decked upon corporate officials to visit this muddy by-lane?
The old, wrinkled yellow alley still offers history on your plate. Sitting on rickety benches and savoring tasty cheap meals of cutlets, kabiraji, rolls and meat curry, what more can a compulsive foodie aspire for?
The variety, quick service, a cheerful vibe with thousands of office-goers satiating their hunger, gives a different experience altogether in that elegiac place for dyspeptics. For a first-time visitor, one would feel like a star-struck kid in a candy shop, trying to fathom which dish to go for. The best part is that they provide with a ‘live menu’ instead of a menu card. This lane is more like Harry Potter’s ‘Diagon Alley’; full of surprise in every step and history that dates back to two centuries.
This 200-years-old lane is a legend and a story-teller by its singular existence.
