Mira Kapoor Is Still “Dreaming About Dal Batti Churma And Aloo Pyaz Sabzi”

Jaipur is Mira Kapoor’s “soul city”. We aren’t saying this. She herself did. The diva, in an Instagram post, has beautifully explained the various reasons behind it. From childhood memories and locals to the intensity of culture and art forms, she loves every bit about the city. And, of course, the delicious food. Mira’s love for yummilicious meals is no news. Now, Mira has discovered an “amazing thali place”, which was a simple vegetarian eatery. Going by her post, she is still “dreaming about the Dal Batti Churma and the Aloo Pyaaz Sabzi.” Well, not just words, Mira has some visual treats as well that will leave you craving some authentic traditional food. In her “postcard from the Pink City”, Mira has added a photograph of the yummy thali. And, oh boy; it looks every bit delectable. We were able to spot churma, batti, two dry vegetables, one dal, two curry vegetables, raita topped with chopped onions, tomatoes, and zucchini. The thali also has a side of salad accompanied by green chilli pickle and two types of bread. It’s heaven on a platter for all vegetarians.
