CHEESE PATTIES Varanasi food tales is incomplete without this extra cheesy, super lucious cheese patties. It is uniquely designed and filled with flavoured cheese which is spicy, salty with a hint of sweet plus corns gives it a nice texture. . This amazing idea is of Mr. Shushil Mankani, who is the owner of Cake Cottage. He is a foodie, a chef and a great person. . Location: Cake Cottage, infront of Passport Office, DLW.

CHAI PEENI HAI Chai Peeni Hai is a chain started by Rajat Malhotra from Lucknow. They have outlets in Lucknow, Gurgaon, Noida and Varanasi. I have tried their Special Chai and no doubt it was special, the chai was flavoured with spices and so well balanced and it's a must try specially in winters. They also serve snacks ₹10/pack, but I think Haldiram gives a better quantity than them. If Chai Peeni Hai really want to be in business then they should make a sitting area where people can chillout, enjoy tea, and have some memorable talks. Though Varanasi is full of Chai stalls but Chai Peeni Hai will be setting a new trend for tea lovers. Go try out for yourself and tell us do you like it or dislike it? Location: Big Bazaar, Sigra. Price:- Desi Chai: ₹10 Special Chai: ₹20

Sham-e-awadh is an underrated place in Varanasi. They serve the yummiest Veg. Manchurian, with spicy noodles. The whole combo with cold drinks cost only ₹120 and that's a wow. Where: Sham-e-awadh, Nadesar, opposite to Tag Ganges.

The famous Raj Kachori! Where: Bikanerwala, IP Vijaya, Bhelupur.

Waffle with vanilla ice cream topped with slices of banana and drizzled chocolate sauce. Sounds itself WOW and taste even better. . Where: Bona Cafe, near Dashasemedh ghat.

Just can't get enough! Visit to the  @holychopsticks  was a divine experience. Love that place, their food and hospitality. Stay tuned for the full review on Holy chopstick

The cheesey gooey stuffed kulche topped with lots of cheeze. Where: Baker's King, Ordely Bazar. Price: ₹30

The ultimate place where you can find more than 50 types of dosa and idli. This place shows absolute creativity with the basic South Indian food. Hop in to surprise your taste buds with twisted food. Here is Tomato Chilli Cheese Dosa, which was incredible in taste with a spicy note and loaded with cheese inside. The dosa was finely crispy, the perfect dosa I ever tasted. A must try place. Where: Dosa Cafe, Dashasemedh lane. Ratings:- Food: 4/5 Ambience: 3.5/5 Service: 3/5 (for late service)

Kulcha Hut is a small food joint in Chowk area. It is a life saver place for those people who carve for delicious kulcha and momos but are stuck in chowk's traffic. Their menu consist of Kulcha, Paratha, Pav bhaji, Noodles, Manchurian, Panner chilli, combos and a great variety of sandwiches that too at low rates. Location:Nichi baag, Chowk. FOOD: I have tried momos, mixed Kulcha and cheesy sandwich. The momos were great and its ultimate to have them with mayo and spicy sauce. Kulcha was super crisy, loaded with butter and stuffed with lots of paneer. I love their tangy green chutney. Finally the cheesy sandwich was really cheesy but I find them abit sweet which I thought it to be salty plus spicy. PRICE: Very pocket friendly. Startling food at low price.

It's true that food keeps us connected. It was such great to spend time with your family, cook food together, and dine together. In winters, it's must to set up barbecue at our rooftop and make some lucious seekh Kebabs along with roomali roti.

The new trend is here in town. Villa 26 is giving some new goals for 2018 for the people of Banaras. Their exclusive menu is very impressive, it covers a whole range of desi and videshi dishes and that's too at a reasonable price. Red velvet waffles is the highlight of this place and I assure you they serve the best, thoda romantic thoda gulabi with vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate sauce and topped with sprinklers. The waffles are crispy and have a light soft tone in centre. A must try.
