Try Nizam’s and Badshah in New Market and Kusum’s and Hot Kathi Roll in Park Street! Zaika, Park Street is one shop who still makes the authentic Kathi Rolls. Kathi rolls were first invented at Kolkata. Love it? i know!

10. Radhabollobi

Ganguram’s has one of a kind, heavenly Radhabollobi. Have it with sweet Mishti doi for an added effect. Thank me later!
