Dining @ Old Ahmedabad

Amazing place I discovered yesterday. Always heard stories about the wonderful food present in the by-lanes of Old Ahmedabad. But experienced it first hand yesterday.
Treat given by Basu da, our group mate! A line of non-veg street side eateries adorned that narrow lane. We went to ZK Fry Centre. And what a pleasure it was to witness the chicken being "tandoored" right beside you!!!

If 1 tandoori chicken was not enough, I had 2 more followed by chicken fry, prawn fry and chicken biriyani. The icing on the cake (chicken?) was well halwa!!!

1 more year left at Ahmedabad and I need to explore all the eateries at Old Ahmedabad. Starting to love the city. Its got a life of its own. Right from the Navratri celebrations to the Kite flying festival in January. From Rambhai outside campus to the friendly auto rickshaw drivers (Yes, I call them friendly since they go by the meter which is a non-existent phenomena back in Chennai). Its a place waiting to be explored. Away from the monotony of the Red Brick Walls.
