Jaipur Food Tour

The food selection may vary depending on the season, availability, opening hours and dietary preferences. Here are some of the popular dishes that you may discover during your experience.

No Jaipur food experience is complete without trying pyaaz kachori.

This popular Rajasthani snack is a deep-fried, flaky pastry filled with a delicious mixture of spiced onions. It is commonly served with tangy tamarind chutney and green chutney.

Learn about the preparation of this iconic snack and enjoy it freshly served at a selected local establishment.

Dal kachori is another popular snack made with a crispy outer layer and a flavourful lentil filling.

Seasoned with traditional Indian spices, it is enjoyed across Rajasthan and is especially popular as a breakfast or evening snack.

For travellers who enjoy spicy food, mirchi vada is a must-know local speciality.

Large green chillies are filled with a spiced potato mixture, coated in gram flour batter and deep-fried until crispy. It is often served with chutney.

Discover the flavours of Indian street snacks with favourites such as samosa, aloo tikki and papdi chaat.

These dishes combine crispy textures, potatoes, yoghurt, chutneys and aromatic spices to create a balance of sweet, spicy, tangy and savoury flavours.

Enjoy a refreshing glass of lassi, a traditional yoghurt-based drink.

In Jaipur, lassi is often served in a traditional clay cup known as a kulhad. Depending on the establishment, it may be topped with cream or malai.

Ghewar is one of Rajasthan's most recognisable traditional sweets.

Made using a special batter and fried into a honeycomb-like shape, it is commonly topped with sugar syrup, rabri or other sweet ingredients. It is especially popular during festivals and celebrations.

Experience two popular Indian sweets: rabri and jalebi.

Rabri is a rich, slow-reduced milk dessert, while jalebi is made from fermented batter fried into circular shapes and soaked in sugar syrup.

Together, they offer a delicious introduction to Jaipur's traditional sweet-making culture.

End your food experience with a cup of traditional masala chai.

Prepared using black tea, milk and aromatic spices, chai is an essential part of everyday life in India. Discover the culture of local tea stalls and the social importance of this popular drink.
