Kolkata Katirol's original and Park Street old shops
Kolkata, the capital of former British India, is the birthplace of Katirol and a gastronomic city where Mughal, Bengali, and European cuisines blend together. Long-standing establishments, such as the original Katirol restaurant Nijams and Peter Kat of Chelo Kebab, are concentrated in the area from Park Street to Newmarket, making it possible to go on a walking tour. Check the meter for yellow Ambassador taxis, and the standard biryani is the Kolkata style (including potatoes and eggs).

Nizam s
니잠스 (Nizam s)
The original shop that invented the Katirol next to Newmarket in 1932. The egg and chicken double roll is the standard; eat it exactly as it is wrapped in parchment paper.
Peter Cat
피터 캣 (Peter Cat)
The legend of Park Street, Cello Kebab (butter rice + kebab) is my top pick. Reservations are not accepted, so waiting in line before opening is a given.
Arsalan
아르살란 (Arsalan)
A leading representative of Kolkata-style biryani. The signature dish is the mutton biryani with large potatoes and eggs, and there is a constant stream of customers for takeout.
Flurys

A European-style tearoom on Park Street that opened in 1927. Let's enjoy a colonial morning with rum bol and English breakfast.

A coffee house on the secondhand book street that used to be a hangout for intellectuals and writers. Order some coffee and Mughlay Paratha and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of old Kolkata.
