Authentic Kolkata Street Food & Snacks

I remember the street-side stalls at Calcutta fairs—the smell of frying spices, the hustle, and the way everything tasted better outdoors. But as a kid, I was always told pet kharap hobe (it will upset your stomach) by my father. That is exactly why I started making these classics at home.

My version of Kolkata-style Chilli Chicken is inspired by the Tangra-style preparation—bold, spicy, and perfect with rotis or noodles. Similarly, my Ghugni is a robust yellow pea curry that I like to dress up with fresh onions, chillies, and coriander, just like the vendors at the Kolkata Book Fair. For those who want something heartier, I even add minced mutton to the mix.

Everything is prepared in my FSSAI-registered kitchen, meaning you get the flavours of the street with the hygiene and quality control of home cooking. Since I handle the cooking myself, I treat every order as a special project. Whether you are hosting an evening get-together or just craving a nostalgic snack, let me know ahead of time so I can prepare your meal with the care it deserves.
