Getting along with the food truck fad – Here’s a list of Udaipur’s food trucks

Udaipur has seen an upsurge in the number of food trucks coming up these days and it is, with no doubt whatsoever, the most hygienic way to chow down on some of the best dishes without having to burn a hole in your pocket. While munching at food trucks is definitely clean and better, there are other perks to it too; as the lack of space in the city increases, and people becoming averse to the idea of sitting down at a cafe and chewing on food leisurely, food trucks gain significance. Besides, it is often costlier to rent a place and start from scratch.

Food trucks are a one-time investment and it’s just a lot easier and fun to drive around places exploring different spots of the town and giving the taste of your food to almost everyone. They are very cost effective in the long run. Food trucks have become a trending topic in the whole country and almost everywhere there is a growing inclination towards eating at these trucks that have rewritten a new page in the history of culinary evolution.

As the mobile kitchen industry booms across the nation and more people venture into this area (most of them being millennials), we present to you a list of the major food trucks in the town, serving mouth-watering food. We bet you must have not heard of some of these before! Have a look:

Sharad Rang – Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

Udaipur recently hosted a one of its kind food and music fest, organized by the West Zone Cultural Centre (WZCC) almost a week ago from October 25th to 29th at Shilpgram, which inevitably was one of the biggest food festivals to have been conducted in the city, funnily enough, agreeing to the fact that not many food festivals have been arranged in the city within the past few years. Nevertheless, as they say, its never too late, and so with the setting up of Sharad Rang – Food and Music Festival, we received an opportunity to witness exhilarating performances by different artists from all over the country delivering breathtaking dance and musical performances while hogging on some mouth-watering traditional delicacies of various states of India.

For those who missed a chance to munch on some of the very many delicious food items presented at the fest, here’s a quick overview of the different stalls and the mélange of food served  :

  1. Awadh ki Mithai

    Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

          The stall, as the name suggests had decorated containers of mithai (sweets) but didn’t quite boast of Awadhi sweets in particular. Although whatever that we tasted was very fresh and good, it didn’t totally feel like we were trying something new. They had Rabdi, Kulfi, Gulab Jamun and Kesariya Doodh (Saffron Milk) and were very affectionate, because obviously, ‘Muskuraiye, ap Lucknow mein hai!’

      2. Lucknowi Chaat

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

This was yet another stall owned by the same smiling face who served us Kulfi and Gula Jamuns. This stall had Basket Chaat, Baingan Chaat (Brinjal Chaat), Palak Chaat (Spinach Chaat), Moong Daal aur Mewa ka Dahi Bada. We tasted the Palak and the Basket Chaat and the first bite alone left us ordering a second one! Crispy and tangy just what a chaat should taste like.

      3. Kashmiri Food

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

Well, Kashmiris weren’t far behind in the race too. Coming all the way down to Rajasthan, they obviously had something appetizing in their menu too. While we sipped on Kahwa (a Kashmiri drink made of green tea, saffron, cinnamon, cardamom, and almonds), the owner of the stall told us about the delicacies he had prepared. Specialities included Rista, Gushtaba, Chicken Dhaniya Korma and Rogan Josh! Beginning of a Daawat surely, no?

      4. Maharashtrian food – Neelam food

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

Maharashtrians came with their set of preparations as well. Serving Zunka Bakar (a tempting preparation of  Jowar and Gramflour, the staple food of rural Maharashtra), Chaat Cone, Sabudana Vada, Puran Poli (sweet flat bread made with gram flour and jaggery stuffing) and Matka Roti, it was no doubt one of the major attractions of the festival, having already hooked the nation to the world famous Vada Pav! Are you addicted too!?

      5. Gujarati Food

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

Gujaratis never lag behind, you just name anything, and Gujaratis are sure to put you in awe. Nothing less can be said for Gujarati food and the love that they sprinkle over it. How could anybody not like the food served with so much of love and warmth? Gujarat brought a dozen of dishes on the plate to devour. Ranging from Thepla, Methi Gota, Ragda Patis, Undhiyu, Khandvi to Dabeli, Fafda, Jalebi, they had almost all of Gujarat kept on the table. Even we got confused what to eat and what not to!

      6. Bihari food

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

This was apparently the most talked about stall of all. Food from Gujarat, Maharashtra and the South is much talked about these days, but we know very little of what Bihar has to offer. We were quite impressed seeing the crowd rushing to savor food from Bihar and eating with such fervor their specialties like Litti Chokha (Litti – lentil stuffed balls made of wheat, Chokha – dip made of eggplant, mashed potatoes, and tomato), Mawa ki Anarsa, Shahi Hing Kachori, Ghugni, Sattu Kachori, Mawa ka Chandrakala, Lal Mohan. Litti in the Litti Chokha had striking similarities with Baati, the only different thing being the gram flour stuffing.

      7. South and Punjabi food – Radha Rasoi

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

South Indian and Punjabi food is not new to Rajasthan. It has become a part of almost every restaurant menu and wedding and other celebrations. We had hoped for some better and new dishes apart from the Masala Dosa, Aloo Paratha, Gobhi Paratha, Spider Roll (similar to spring roll) but it failed to amaze us. The food was cold and double fried (referring to the Spider Roll here). There was one similar stall also serving Punjabi food in the form of Chole Bhature, Amritsari Kulcha, Sarso ka Saag, Makai ki Roti, which was otherwise fresh and tasty but didn’t quite hit the mark.

      8. Lucknowi food – Wahid Biriyani

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

Lucknow has seen the footfall of various Nawabs in history and unlike any other stall we had high hopes for finding nice non-vegetarian food from Lucknow and just when we started feeling the absence of one, this came to the rescue! This was a huge setup and served vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian delicacies but with a drawback; they cooked both veg and non-veg in the same pan using the same oil which made it really worrisome for some vegetarians to choose to eat there. Apart from this, Mr. Aabid Ali Qureshi was a jolly person and insisted us on tasting each and everything. We tasted the Zaafrani Phirni which was mindblowing and some other specialties being Galauti Kebab, Chicken Masala, Mutton and Chicken Biriyani, Warki Paratha, Reshmi Tikka and Roasted Chicken. It was truly a treat for non-vegetarians.

      9. Padam Thaal and Aapno Rajasthan

Sharad Rang - Food and Music Festival, reviving traditional delicacies

How can Rajashtanis be left behind when there’s food been talked about on the counter!? People ate Daal Baati Churma, Besan Gatte ki Sabzi, Papad Methi, Ker Sangri, Sev Tamatar, Mawa Kachori, Jodhpuri Mirchibada, Ajmer Kadi Kachori, Bikaneri Jalebi, and Bajre ki Roti with equal craze and excitement and enjoyed beyond limits. Afterall, a happy stomach is a happy soul!

 

What are your views? Should we have more festivals like these in our city?

Vaibhav Chhajed the person behind Udaipur’s Giani Ice Cream did his graduation from Delhi. During his grad years, he always went to Giani’s and had his favorite ice cream. His vision of bringing Gianis to Udaipur comes as an addition to his love for ice cream.

As I ran into an interesting conversation with him, he narrated ‘Giani ki Kahani’ in his words, “The venture started in 1956 at Giani-di-Hatti, situated amidst the bazaars of Fatehpuri, Chandni Chowk, and still is known as one of the major landmarks of old Delhi. It was here that Giani Gurcharan Singh, a traditional sweetmeat maker from the then Layallpur (Faisalabad), Pakistan, set up a shop upon migrating to Delhi. He started serving his famous rabri-faluda and mango shakes, with love and best quality ingredients. This struck an instant chord with the discerning residents of the city and in no time at all, Giani (“the learned” in Punjabi), was a well-known name.”

Pretty interesting, isn’t it!!!

5 Dhabas in Udaipur worth visiting

Udaipur is home to scintillating scenery, some of the world’s best hotels, and a rich culture that keeps you mesmerized your entire life. Anything and everything in Udaipur is much talked about all over the world, but some of us are yet not familiar with the ‘dhabas’ (roadside restaurants generally situated on highways that serve local cuisine) situated in the vicinity of the city. And that’s why we were on the lookout for some worth visiting once, while you are in town. What are you even waiting for? Hop on your vehicles and head straight to one because the weather cannot get any better than this.

Charan Kamal Dhaba, N.H 8, Ahmedabad Highway

5 dhabas in Udaipur worth visiting once

Situated approximately 15kms from the city, this pure vegetarian dhaba is as happening as it gets. Drop over some time and enjoy their mouth watering laccha parathas with paneer tikka masala, dal fry and relive the experience of highways of Punjab. The owner Mr. Amritpal Singh Daurka is a jolly one and defines his Punjabi thali and cheese butter masala best in town. The average cost of dining for two people comes around ₹200-225/- and they operate till midnight. So now you know where to satisfy your midnight cravings that too at an affordable price. (Drive safe though!)

 

Harsh Jodhpur Restaurant, N.H 8, Opp. Lodha Filling Stn.

2. Harsh Jodhpur
If you are a Rajasthani food buff and want to savor some delicacies then this is the place for you. Located 6km from the heart of the city, this pure veg spot serves appetizing stuffed capsicum, malai pyaaz and laccha paratha and are open till midnight. Some of the specialties include stuffed tomato, besan gatte ki sabzi and kadhi pakoda. It has one separate air conditioned room if need be and is low in your pocket with dining costs for two between ₹250-300/-

 

Khalsa Pure Veg, 837 – University Road5 dhabas in Udaipur worth visiting once

Tired of driving on the highways looking for dhabas? Don’t worry, we’ve got you sorted with this great place situated right in the city. Mr. Kartar Singh ji ( the owner who is as lovely as his food) boasts of best in town dal makhani, paneer tikka and kulche chole. They even home deliver food across the city and have recently started a tiffin service at a very reasonable price. Cost of dining here would be approximately ₹300-350/- but it is worth spending every penny.

 

Bal Bal To, 100 ft. road, Opp. Connaught Place5 dhabas in Udaipur worth visiting once

We realized how many of you must’ve gotten bored with the pure vegetarian options so we thought of giving this recently opened place a try. This place has the set-up of a typical dhaba with a very interesting Mewari name which means ‘Hot-hot’, and they sure keep up with the name serving some amazing non-vegetarian dishes with specialties like Fish Lasuni, Tandoori Chicken, Mutton Masala, etc. They also serve vegetarian dishes and have a dedicated menu for diet-conscious people consisting of Lemon Chicken, Veg Saute, Lemon Fish, etc. The owner Mr. Prashant Tak tells us they too have a home delivery facility across town and that average food for two would cost around ₹300-350/-

 

Shreenath Kathiyawadi, N.H 8, Balicha Bypass5 dhabas in Udaipur worth visiting once

Is it even an authentic dhaba experience if we do not have to take out our cars/bikes to travel to the place? Situated 8kms away from the main city, Kathiwadi food aficionados have a great place to visit just out of town. They serve Kathiyawadi thali along with several other thali options like Punjabi, Gujarati, etc. The owner Mr. Ramesh Gurjar tells us they operate 24*7 throughout the year and serve the best kathiyawadi food anywhere around. The average cost of dining for two is approximately ₹250-300/-
