West Bengal is one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse states of India. It can be considered as the gateway to the exotic East. Different ethnicities, languages and cultures add to the rich beauty of West Bengal. The Capital of West Bengal is Calcutta presently Kolkata. Food is a very important aspect of the Bengalis. Fish, sweets and other foods are discussed and debated about passionately as Leftist ideologies and Tagore. The cooks and the ladies spend a lot of time planning out the menus and preparing them. This page is like a site map (not a proper one though). I am a Bisudhdho Bangali by heart and this page is being dedicated to the great food culture of my land, West Bengal. |
